    Description

    This is a hand-painted wooden sign, and was mounted on the liftgate of the 1973 Ford box truck
    that was owned and operated by Twin City Surplus in Reno for many years.
    Twin City Surplus was a Reno icon for decades,
    and a favorite source of Burning Man preps for many Burners.
    You may have been behind this truck in Reno, and saw this sign years ago.
    This sign would be a great addition to your Camp in Black Rock City (BRC) in 2022,
    or just display in your shop?
    The sign in the last photo was the one that was visible on the truck when I bought it in early 2019.
    When I removed that sign, I found the one that I am selling underneath!
    (the one that was "on top" has already been sold, sorry).
    The sign is
    heavily
    weathered, but is intact enough for static display use.
    Dimensions:
    Width: 82-83”
    Height: 37-½””
    Thickness of the plywood the sign is made of: ⅜”
    .
    Located in Golconda, Nevada,

    I
    may
    be able to deliver this item to you, but if you need me to do this,
    you must contact me to arrange details BEFORE buying!
