I got this old Allis dealer sign today. It,s heavy metal and is in not bad shape considering it hung on the front of the building for many years. It came from an old Allis dealership in Saskatchewan that closed about 1940. Anyone know what time frame this sign would be from?

Good find Phil. I've never seen one like that before. The diamond logo is from 1949-1964 so you might check the dates.
Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed

I'm going on info from seller who I've known for quite a while. He is from the area where the dealer was and he was told that it closed about 1940. Old memories sometimes fail!!!
(Don't ask me how I know!!)  Anyway, I like the sign and even though it wasn't cheap, I think it was fairly priced for it's condition. I have to find a good place for it on my shop wall.

He doesn't remember the dealer as he is in mid twenties!!
