[CBQ] Re: Adams Express Company depot sign colors?

["Randy Gordon-Gilmore randy@prototrains.com [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

John and Ken, thank you for your answers.  Yes, I also have seen 
photos of tin and other Adams Express signs in many different color 
schemes but was hoping to find what might have specifically been used 
on depot signs as opposed to advertising signs.

But I've since learned that by 1929, Adams Express, along with 
Southern Express, American Express and Wells Fargo, had been 
consolidated into Railway Express Agency, so for my late-1930's era 
the Adams Express sign seems actually to not be appropriate anyway...

So off my study models the signs will come.  And now I need to find 
out what REA depot signs might have looked like pre-WWII.

Thanks again,

Randy
