Mr. Shaw & Barnyard,

I have a friend that is a Huge IH Collector here is Texas, Sam Adams. He has the same neon signs off the Dealership like you posted pictures of, but there was also a Cub mounted on the top. He got both signs and the cub. He recently bought the front doors off the same dealership. I am trying to get him to host a CubFest at his place in Tyler.

50s-60s era, I believe, I am working on getting a copy of the picture of the original dealership that the sign came of off. As my dealer has a pic of it at his Case/IH dealership :D
Now that will be cool, if we can just locate the other sign.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but your sign is not neon is it?

Indy61,

Believe it or not that was the actual dealership in Tyler, Texas area. Sam has purchased many of the items from it. I have yet to see his place in person but from what I hear from others it is quite the site to see. However, I have seen pictures of his many prized possessions and they are definetly impressive!
