 Its been a bit quiet on the site recently so showing this tin sign .I bought it on Portobello Road ,London in 1983 for £10..A bit worn and tired ,but I thought it would do me for now  untill a better one came along . Fourty years later and still looking ,though not so bothered now !!. I did visit a motoring collector in Dundee 15 years later.  He had a better one. It had though (if my memory serves me right)  been folded in half some time in the past so damaged down the middle. Just wandered if anybody has a good one..I think it must be a cracking sign undamaged, unworn with all original colours..embossed

 Forty not fourty..Some say fourty is the American spelling..I think this belief is wrong

Funnily enough, I was thinking about this sign the other day. Would absolutely love one. Missed out on a few over the years and now they seem to have disappeared!
