"Yes Geno did have a fire but not everything was lost he had insurance and its sounds like his fords will be ok! But still it sucks as a lot of those signs go way back to our early days of collecting!!!"

This just in from the owner lastnight..

Hi,it's Gene Sonnen here.Yes,I did have a garage fire on Jan.20,2010 and yes,I did lose part of my over 40+ year collection.At the time of the fire I was with friends looking at another collection and received a call from my alarm company notifying me that my garage was on fire.The apparent cause of the fire was a timer that shorted out.I had the timer in the garage to turn on an outside gas pump light.The St Paul fire department showed up and did a great job putting out the fire.Thank you all for your concern, and if I were you I would check out the status of your timers.
