Derby Gas Sign

Old metal Derby Gasoline Sign. Great vintage sign, about 4' across.
Found this little snippet on another blog:

 "As summer approaches, we can’t help but remember family vacation road trips of days gone by. This undated photo shows fuel prices that allowed families of modest means to consider such journeys in those times, even in the big sedans shown here. We’re guessing that it was shot in late 1957 or early 1958, based on the Impala visible at the second pump island. Near as we can tell, Derby was a regional brand of gas sold in the Kansas City, Kansas/ Missouri area." - http://theoldmotor.com/?tag=derby-gasoline
