Love old auto-related signs. Ghosts of the past. I live near where the old Motor City Dragway was located here in Michigan. It closed when I was just a kid. Years later, I'd notice that the old sign was still there whenever I drove by. One day, a light-bulb finally turned on in my head. I thought to myself, "I'm gonna go get that sign!" Wouldn't you know it. After years of seeing it still standing, it was gone.

There's an old fallout shelter sign on my high school that I've been itching for.
