Beginning in 1982, Rothmans Racing an already established name in the automotive world began supporting factory Porsche race teams. This partnership helped catapult the iconic Porsche 956 to a 1-2-3 finish in the 1982 24 Hours of Le Mans. They would go on to win the series three additional times throughout the 80s. Rothmans-Porsche also won the 1985 World Sportscar Championship before the team officially pulled out of the series in 1987.

@shovey28 Thank you. Not sure of age but the frame had most of the paint faded from the sun. That’s why I decided to refurbish it. It is from Europe and is currently 220V. A transformer for $60 can convert it to 120V. Should you decide to change the lights to led it could be rewired. It currently has fluorescent tubes in it.
This sign is great... any history on the sign? What it was used for, where it came from?
