Vintage Canoe/beer Ad Sign On Ebay

[Scott Rowe]

Just happened on this ebay item for sale, it a 1950/60 Genessee Beer Illuminated Sign with a fishing scene on it that happened to be a nice two tone cedar canvas canoe. Probably Old Town? See if this pasted link to it works.

These 'jumping fish' images were very popular during that era as shown at http://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/postcard/redgreen.gif and http://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/postcard/red-blue.gif for example.
