Acadian / Beaumont Dealership Signs
Permalink  

Last night I was wondering about original Acadian/Beaumont dealership signage..
I'm talking about the exterior signs on a post that GM would have issued, not the paper ones for the windows or interior signage even though I'd like to see pics of any of these too..

I seem to recall there was exterior sign-post Acadian ones (and Vauxhall ones too) but was there Beaumont signs and did any of them light up?.

Anyone have any wisdom on what the General provided their Acadian/Beaumont dealers?.

Any pics of these would be cool or better yet anyone have one of the signs themselves?.

Here's a pic of an Acadian sign from a member on another forum (maybe this one too?). 

Looks to be an interior sign.  It's 2 ft wide x 3 1/2 ft tall.

"Birchwood" is a Winnipeg dealership.

Oh man, if I get ambitious and am in the mood for making a sign, I know what it's gonna look like....

Bet I could sell one to 62 Beaumont if I did, too!
