FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS A VINTAGE “INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER GAS OR GASOLINE HIT AND MISS ENGINES ” 8″ BY 6″ SUPER HEAVY AND THICK (OVER 7 OUNCES) PORCELAIN GASOLINE & OIL ADVERTISING SIGN. THIS SIGN HAS AWESOME GRAPHICS OF A DIE-CUT OLD TIME INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER HIT AND MISS ENGINE WHICH WERE VERY POPULAR ON FARMS BACK IN THE DAY. THIS DIE-CUT SIGN ADVERTISES FOR 2.3 HORSEPOWER ENGINES AND 5 HORSEPOWER ENGINES. YOU COULD USE THE BELTS ON THIS ENGINE TO DO MANY TASKS ON THE FARM SUCH AS WASH CLOTHES, SHUCK CORN, PUMP OUT A WELL ETC. THESE GRAPHICS ARE RARE AND SELDOM SEEN AND ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITE ALONG WITH THE VERY HEAVY OVER 7 OUNCES OF DIE-CUT PORCELAIN AND YOU HAVE A GREAT PIECE OF ADVERTISING. THIS IS A HARD TO FIND SIGN IN THIS CONDITION AND DOES SHOW LIGHT WEAR AND USE BUT HAS AMAZING COLOR AND GLOSS. THIS SIGN HAS 2 HOLES FOR HANGING AND IS MADE OF HEAVY DIE-CUT PORCELAIN. THIS IS A VERY HARD TO FIND SIGN IN THE THICK HEAVY PORCELAIN VERSION THAT DIE-CUT AND WEIGHTS 7 OUNCES.. NOT CHEAP TIN OR THIN METAL. Please do your own research as vintage does not necessarily mean original. Note: I was left with a large advertising collection along with some that I have collected over the years & I also attend high end estate sales in the area. I have decided to sell some of our rare and hard to find signs. Please be sure to check out my auctions and add me to your watchlist for more signs in the future. I have taken a lot of time to take pictures and describe these signs the best I can. The starting price is low and without a reserve, this will allow you to get a good deal and tell the community what the current value of these signs are. I have spent a lot of time listing and answering peoples questions, I do not have time to deal with people who decide afterwards they don’t want the sign and want to send it back. I really do think people can respect this, and I believe most collectors are really great people. But I must be clear about it to avoid people trying to play games. I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL MY LIFELONG COLLECTION OF SIGNS SO STAY TUNED FOR MORE TO COME.
