Know before you buy
The distressed finish is a high-quality printed effect designed to mimic the look of aged metal, scratches, and rust. It provides a vintage aesthetic without the structural degradation or flaking associated with real corrosion.
This sign is specifically designed for indoor use. While it is crafted from durable metal, the finish and materials are not rated for prolonged exposure to outdoor weather conditions or direct sunlight.
The sign comes equipped with pre-punched eyelets, making it easy to mount using standard screws or nails. Because it is made of metal, it is lightweight enough for most wall types.
The size options refer to the longest dimension of the die-cut sign. Please measure your intended wall space carefully to ensure the chosen size fits your layout.
This is a modern reproduction of classic Esso advertising art. It is manufactured in the USA using contemporary materials to replicate the look and feel of a vintage original.
