It's on a basically 5 ft x 5 ft shield shaped sign.

Awesome, thanks. Any ideas on a rough value of this one? I've got an idea in mind, but I want to make sure I'm right. It's pretty nice with only a couple of chips and a little wear/rust on the edges. It's enamel, not porcelain.

The company had its offices at 620 3rd Ave. in Dallas in the mid-40s.

Double sided

Awesome sign, great shape! I bet to a collector will pay top dollar for that beauty (depending on rarity. is it bent at the top?).

I would reach out to these guys if you want it appraised possibly. https://www.oldred.org/ looks like they have an exhibition on Mobilgas.

Thanks. Nope, it's not bent.
