We Give S&H Green Stamps Sign

My fascination with S&H Green Stamps started in the early 1960s when I traveled with my Dad between Seattle, Washington, and Portland, Oregon on highway 99. I would look forward to the next gas stop at a Standard or Richfield station, as these were Dads favorites. The S&H Green Stamp sign would be prominently displayed under the gas sign, letting you know  that S&H Stamps came with a fill up. The rest of the trip was spent licking and sticking stamps in the redemption book. My recollection is that it took thousands of stamps to redeem even a toaster! 

Original S&H Green Stamps Sign 20”x28” still affordable at $150-$500.

S&H Green Stamps started in the 1930s, and ran to the late 1980s, operated by the Sperry & Hutchinson company. They boasted that their rewards book was the largest publication in the United States, and they issued three times more stamps than the U.S Postal System. 
If you have ever owned an old car, then I’m sure you have found old S&H Stamps stuffed in the glove box or under the seats. One of the very first signs purchased in our collection is an S&H sign, which we still have today. These signs are unique and colorful, especially the later versions, and can be a nice addition to a sign collection. The original signs are still very affordable: $150- $500, depending on size and condition. Reproduction versions are: $40 - $200.
