Tin Signs For Your Home, Office Or Collection

Tin signs bring back a bit of nostalgia or set the tone for a special place in your home or business. How about that ever famous Route 66! You could decorate a while room with tin signs for all the states US 66 goes through!

Remember the original Texaco Fire Chief logo? Ah yes.. those were the days when someone anxiously awaited for you to drive in. They'd fill you car up, wipe the winshields clean and check your oil while the pump worked.

The Pegasas logo for Mobil Gas is another one. Into farming? Well.. tin signs for inside that tractor would be cool. Or just to mark you home as a place where John Deere equipment is important. There are new John Deere Tractor tin signs, or there are older ones too. There's a tin sign for an old Ford Truck as well.

For a bit of tv or movie nostalgia, how about a Betty Boop Kiss on a tin sign. Or, the Men of Mayberry from the Andy Griffith show. These and more are available.

You can entice people at your party to indulge by displaying Coke or Chocolate or Budweiser tin signs. Remember that trip to the local drugstore or ice cream soda counter? You could have a huge milkshake for a quarter. Or a coke float. Old tin signs that might show the slogans from that era are great for a kitchen, basement or to set a mood for a party. Want something a bit more adult? How about a Jack Daniel's sin sign.

Old cars your thing? Get a tin sign of a GTO, or a classic Chevrolet Corvette.

So don't miss out. Load up on Tin Signs and make a statement for your special rooms. You might want to place them on the wall. Maybe strategically placed inside a shelf of books on related topics. However you decide to use them they will bring a smile to your face everytime you remember the good ole days.

Great Tin Sign
Looking for help on one of my great-grandma's old recipes.?

So my grandma made this recipe that she called Apple Coffe Cake. When we looked for the recipe in the house, there was no sign of it. Only a note card that had a general outline. It is written as follows

Dough- rolled out thin-
Egg-milk- painted on
Apples-
sour cream+water/mlik
cinn+sugar.

It has an almost jelly like tecture and it is smooth without bits of apples. It is in a pie tin. It can be cut like a pie and it will hold its shape. Please, any ideas or anything kind of like it? Thank you very much.

I found this recipe which calls for the ingredients you listed. The only thing is that it calls for apple sauce which would cause the pie to be smooth.

DUTCH APPLE PIE

4 c. canned applesauce
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. flour
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tbsp. grated lemon rind
Pastry for 2-crust 9-inch pie
1/2 c. dairy sour cream
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. confectioners' sugar
1 to 2 tbsp. cream or milk

In a saucepan, mix applesauce, salt, flour, sugar, spices, and lemon rind. Cook and stir over moderately low heat for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until thickened. Cool to room temperature. Line a 9-inch pie pan with pastry and chill. Spoon filling into shell. Combine sour cream and vanilla. Spread over filling.
Roll out remaining pastry and cover the pie. Seal the edges and prick the top. Bake in a hot 400 degree oven for 35 minutes. Cool pie for about 20 minutes.
