Mohawk Oil Company - Bakersfield, CA - Circa 1930's. This incredibly rare sign is the best of two known examples and features a bold Native American graphic. DST (double sided tin) sign has excellent color and shine. Both sides display very well. Side #1 has small paint chips and scratches in the field and along the perimeter. The Mohawk lettering has a light crease through "HAW" and a circular crease in the red at 3 o'clock. The reverse has similar wear. The outer black border on the reverse may have an older repaint. Mounted in a new metal ring. We believe this sign dates after the brand's acquisition by California Petroleum in 1925 or a later reorganization in 1928. Overall, an iconic centerpiece to any petroliana collection. 29.75" D. Condition: 8 & 7.9. All items are guaranteed authentic by Richmond Auctions.
