Clippinger wood yardstick Covina, CA

Hi Gang, i'm considering thinning my personal stash / collection.

Here's a RARE Supercar Dealer advertising piece, a wood / wooden yardstick yard stick. A very cool piece of memorabilia IMHO. It's obviously always been local and I can't say the last time I've ever seen or heard about one.

It's clearly genuine and has some age to it that cannot be faked - certainly not a reproduction for sure. Some wear, but never really "used" - it's been a wall hanger for years and years. Shows both inches and centimeters.

I'm not sure what year(s) it's from but the back is a metric meter stick, so that might shed some light - when were they pushing that down here? Mid 70s?

Anyway, it is what it is and I'll reluctantly sell for $300 PPG shipped to the 48 with insurance. Their license plate frames get that easily and I've had several of those... this is the only one of these rulers I've ever seen / had.

Very cool opportunity here and it doesn't take up a lot of real estate.

Cheers all,
Anthony

ps - yes, that's what our backyard lawn looks like now...
