I did a lot of online searching to find some suitable images for late 60's early 70's billboards. Here are what I've made so far. Oh, Peerless Appliance is my own made up company ...an off railroad industry served by staging track.
Some of them in their new locations:
The recently relocated and designed WM tower area
..and the Kings Port Area
Looking good Ralph.Signs go a long ways toward defining era and location.
Having the anti-pollution billboard next to the smoke stack pouring out smoke.
Was that planned, or incidental?

I'll admit to doing that on purpose Ed! I was hoping some one might comment on it!
Nice additions to a wonderful layout!!
Nicely done Ralph. Very effective.
I saw the Gern tanker but no Gern billboards advertising the 3% improvement it makes to everything.
Was the 7up billboard inspired by The Beatles Yellow Submarine by any chance? It looks awfully similar?

Sure looks like it Mark. It was apparently designed right around that time so it makes sense.
