Title: Howe Machine Co Wood Sign Repo?
Post by: rustyattic on April 27, 2015, 05:56:35 PM

I can't find much on google for this.  I found a few similar ones on similar wood, 1 was listed as original, real old, etc, the other was a lighter color poster on similar wood, but sold as reproduction.

Wow !!  Thats a long link !! These signs were big business back in the 70`s !! There was a California company well known for making them mounted on wood like yours !! I have had a few different ones !!  Can`t remember the name though !! I am sure someone here will remember !! Or I will try to find it tomorrow !!
