AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This Goodyear sign consists of eight letters and the Wingfoot logo, which together cover about 5 meters and spell the company name.
Each piece is made of metal with a white porcelain finish, and details on the Wingfoot logo are rendered in white and blue.
At the back of each sign piece are metal brackets for wall mounting.
The Ohio-based company, founded in 1898 as Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, is named after Charles Goodyear,
the inventor of vulcanized rubber.

The founder of the company, Frank Seiberling, proposed in 1900 that the winged foot of the Roman god Mercury would be the inspiration
for his corporate logo.
White and blue porcelain accent the metal construction and the winged foot is about 95 cm wide.
The company name is rendered in eight metal letters with a white porcelain finish.
Each letter is about 50 cm high and 45 cm wide.
Imperfections are documented in the gallery.
