Not long after our friend Pierre Tardif, Grondines, Quebec, Canada, saw the photo of our father’s used car lot sign from 1952 on SignCraft’s office wall, this perfect replica showed up at our office. Pretty cool!
Cool cutout HDU graphics on an HDU oval, photographed in Fort Worth, Texas. The folks in the restaurant didn’t know who made it.

Jim Fetten [Fetten Sign Co., Jamesport, NY] restored the 23K gold leaf lettering and striping on this 1928 LaFrance fire truck for the Eastchester Fire Dept., using the original “delivery photograph” so that it was historically correct. It’s impossible to appreciate the precision and detail in the photos of this incredible job.

The added dimension on the letters on this sandblasted 20-lb. Precision Board HDU sign by Raymond Chapman, Chapman Sign Studio, Temple, TX, was done by applying PB Resin Epoxy before painting and gilding. The faces are sandwiched over an aluminum panel, and the cast aluminum star is also gilded.
