DST. What an incredible piece of early automotive advertising! There are very few items in the Gas & Oil hobby that match the colors and graphics of this piece. This particular piece is the much harder to find in the double sided version. Side one shows fantastic color and gloss throughout the field with little to no wear at any of the graphic points. The colors are bright with some very minimal wear in the field. There is some light wear and color fade around the outer edge. Side two shows very nice color with low gloss shown throughout. Although the gloss is low, the colors are still bright and there is very little wear at any graphic point. There are some minimal surface scratches and rust points but mostly along the outer edge and away from focal points. There is one very small pin type hole at the very bottom of the sign, not very noticeable. This is one of the nicest examples of this sign you will find.
