Esso Tiger Face Vintage Porcelain Enamel Sign (12in)

Put a Tiger in Your Tank—Esso’s Iconic Symbol of Power

Few advertising mascots are as legendary as the Esso Tiger. First introduced in the 1950s, this fierce yet friendly feline became the face of Esso’s high-performance fuel, symbolizing power, reliability, and energy. This vintage-style porcelain sign brings back the golden age of classic gas stations and Esso’s unforgettable branding, featuring bold colors, striking typography, and the unmistakable tiger face that became an icon of the road. A must-have for collectors of vintage gas & oil memorabilia, classic service station signs, and Esso advertising history.

Remember when things were built to last? When craftsmanship mattered?

We do too. That’s why we don’t cut corners. This Esso Tiger Face 12” Porcelain Sign is built exactly like the originals—real kiln-fired porcelain enamel, layered onto ¼-inch heavy-gauge steel for a finish that lasts a lifetime.

Built Like the Originals—Because It Is.

After 15 years as an auctioneer and lifelong collector, I saw firsthand how true craftsmanship was disappearing. Today’s market is flooded with flimsy aluminum and cheap stickers. We bring back the weight, feel, and durability of true vintage porcelain signs, with hand-punched mounting holes, thick steel, and a rich, baked-on finish.

Key Features:

✔ 12” diameter – Classic size for garages, gas stations, and collections
✔ ¼” heavy gauge steel – Thick, durable, and built to last
✔ Hand-rolled edge – Just like the originals, for an authentic feel
✔ Kiln-fired porcelain enamel – Weatherproof and fade-resistant
✔ Hand-punched mounting holes – No pre-drilled factory shortcuts
✔ Weatherproof for indoor or outdoor display

Satisfaction Guaranteed.

We’re collectors too, and we know how it feels to be disappointed with a purchase. That’s why we stand behind every sign with a no-questions-asked return policy—plus, we cover shipping.
