I'm badly trying to find a good photo of a Pet Ice Cream (or milk) sign from the pre-war era. Pet was (and still is) a dairy outfit mostly out of the Southeast (but not as far South as the Gulf coast). They were a big thing in the area my parents grew up in, in Northeast Tennessee, as there was a milk plant in the next big town (Johnson City) from where they grew up.
Some of you might know I'm currently building a O scale model train layout representing a narrow-gauge railroad that ran in that area, taking place in 1943. I am currently detailing a rural gas station and to me, nothing would look more correct for the area than something from Pet.
I've searched Google and turned up nothing that is era-specific that isn't all rusted out. I need a good color photo, straight on and not taken from an angle, of something of theirs from before 1945.
