A Seals sign showed up on Antiques Roadshow last night. This lady's story was that she was tearing off a roof in San Mateo in 1980 and the sign was part of the roof. Hmmmm...if it was part of a roof, why are there no nail holes where nails would have fastened it to the rafters? If memory serves, two similar signs showed up on ebay in 2016. Back then, I thought they were real but now I'm not so sure. One ebay sign had a Marin Dell milk ad on the back; the other (I think) was a campaign sign from 1959. That seemed a little fishy. They did not show the back of the one on Antiques Roadshow.
