Default 'Hot Rod' Novemver of 1966

There is a real cool Nickey advertisement in Hot Rod magazine, dated November 1966 (my notes). Does anyone have it?

Ok here is a tough one, I think? The Bill Thomas building in Anaheim California had two signs displayed in the shape of the Crests above. On one side of his shop was the Nickey Chicago Crest and on the other side the BTRC crest.

I believe that you had to walk under the Nickey crest in order to enter the building, other than using a garage door.

Does anyone have a picture of this?
