When you put it that way, at less than $13/hour that sign was a pretty cheap employee for the sales department!

Recently I attended an auction where they had a very large sign advertising General Motors Radio. This was from the thirties and was still new in the crate. (the building it was to have been installed on burned down while the sign was in transit) A big, beautiful sign that must have been 10' tall, the type shaped like an arrow pointing down to the storefront. Anyway, it was so big and bulky that nobody knew what to do with it. It sold for only $100. I would have bid on it but I sure don't have the space. I bet if you talked to the right person they would give you that monster Zenith sign but then what would you do with it!?
