Fuji Rabbit Sign

I'm a sucker for scooter memorabilia. Specifically, I'm into old dealer items... like signs, brochures, manuals, tools, and obscure stuff like that. Over the years, I've gotten a bit of a collection. However, sometimes you just come across something that is essentially unique. That is what I have here with this Fuji Rabbit dealer sign. I've seen a lot of different Vespa and Lambretta signs, but never one for a Rabbit. Not many Rabbits were sold in the US, and I can't imagine many dealers bothered to get a sign.

This one is a cut above. The sign is essentially in as-new condition. It is perfect. The color is bright, and there is no flaw in it anywhere. It still has a "made in Japan" stamp on one of the sides. It is a double sided sign, and both sides are the same. The lettering and logo are made from cut pieces of plastic that are about the same width as the white part of the sign. This thing is fantastic.

Of course, I don't have a Fuji Rabbit scooter... which is kind of a shame. Anyone know of a Rabbit collector that is dying to have a rare piece for their garage?
