List of Abbreviations, Terms and Rating System used in this review by Matthews Auctions, LLC (?TAC?)
The rating system listed below is of my own design and is now the industry standard for grading and describing Petroliana and Advertising collectibles.

Condition of signs are rated 1 to 10, 10 being the best grade
a) 9.5 to 10 ? absolutely a mint sign no imperfection (I never give ?10?)
b) 9 to 9.4 ? almost perfect, may have a factory flaw or almost no damage, if there is, there will be none in field, only chips will be around the edge, great gloss
c) 8.5 to 8.9 ? may have minor damage, small chips, and minor wear but has to have good or great gloss
d) 8 to 8.4 ? has more damage, chips are getting larger or maybe in an important area, still should have good gloss
e) 7.5 to 7.9 ? chips are still getting larger or more of them, heavier wear in field, gloss is starting to go
f) 6 to 7.4 ? these signs have heavy damage, no gloss, small crease, deep scratches
g) 5 or less ? This is a judgment call, poor condition all the way around

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms and Conditions, TAC will not authenticate any single-sided sign that has been restored, nor will TAC apply a sticker over damage to conceal it.
