I picked this U.S. Royal Tires tin sign a year ago at an outside estate sale. Another nice sign found in Indiana. The sign has a little paint missing along the edge. It's not to noticeable. The sign is dated 1947 and has embossed lettering.

Does anybody know if the "skinny" or "fat" lettered U.S. TIRES signs are older than the other? I see the skinny ones have U.S. RUBBER in yellow in a circle and the fat ones have U.S. TIRES in yellow instead.
Thanks Dan for stopping by! Post your sign and show us.
