Need Help With Ebbets Tanglefoot Flypaper Sign
 
In 1916 Tanglefoot advertised on the outfield wall of Ebbets field in Brooklyn. The advertisement read, " In 1915 Wheat, Brooklyn, caught 345 flies. Tanglefoot caught 50,000,000,000 flies."
Does anyone have a photo of the sign they could post here or tell me where to find one. I collect Wheat and would really like to find a nice picture of the sign.
Thanks Kenny.

Sure thing-from Donald Honig's The Brooklyn Dodgers An Illustrated Tribute:

(Sorry, the Piedmont sign is cut off in the book)

Hey thanks so much. I will play with it a little and see if I can darken it up.
