Oldsmobile Service Sign

Painted sheet iron sign. Dated 1953. 54" diameter. This compelling example of 1950's graphics was rescued from a defunct automobile dealership in Greenville, Illinois. Reflecting the mid-century fascination with all things outer space, the sign depicts a futuristic globe. With the end of Oldsmobile as one of America's original automakers, this sign reflects both the future and the past. The condition in which this sign was found and is offered adds to its appeal as a relic from a time when travel was new and the world awaited.
