Signs and stuff

[trust]

My late father in law ended up with a number of the large old metal gas signs from somewhere (he was a real cowboy and saved EVERYTHING). I think they are intact although some meay have had patch panels cut out of them. I scavanged a couple old battery signs that were being used as shelving (`4ft by 16") from a buddy that was tearing down his shed.

i guess my question is: what kind of value might these have and what's teh best way to move them? I'd prefer to keep them but clearly I'll never have a shop in which to take advantage of them and neither of the other sons in law can spell car so I could probably bring them home if I asked. If i do, would they work ok on a ceiling as a decoration or would that just close up the space evenworse then it is already?

Suggestions appreciated!

TIA

If you're interested in prices, browse eBay for awhile to see what they are going for. As for putting them on the ceiling, I can't see why that would not work...

Send me the pictures also. I have sold some petroliana over the years and know many of the key players in that market.
