Anyone have a pegboard out of an old esso station?
I picked this one up at a garage sale and the owners daughter said they had owned two esso stations back in the day.
Had to take this one apart to get it in my explorer.
The trim pieces are; Top is 7' 1 1/2" & bottom is 6' 2 1/2" & sides are 50".
It is not square as you can tell by the top and bottom trim pieces and does not have any writing on it.
Would this be original to an esso station or is it just something they bought and hung up?
This is just one panel and some trim. Paid $10 for it.

I used to work at an old esso station in high school in the 80's. By then it was exxon, but a lot of the esso stuff was still there at that point. I never saw anything like that pegboard. I'd guess it was just something the owners put in and not from the company.

I managed 7 Exxons (not all at once) when I was younger. Most of them were pretty old buildings and they were all always Esso/Exxon. Never saw anything like that that came from "Corporate". I'd say it was user made.

Thanks, that would explain why my search for esso pegboards were zilch.
After I work on it and get it back together i'll take a pic and share.

You can get as 4x8 foot sheets of "Garage Panel" at any big box home inprovment store.
It is pre-painted, 1/4 thick, peg board.

Well I got it back together by myself and it was a hassle, flimsy metal.
The trim is red but it doesn't show in the shadows of the shed.
Its over 4' by 7'.
