CONTACT US FOR BILLBOARD INFORMATION

Let me qualify myself I have been serving the outdoor advertising industry since 1963. I started out working for a small Florida outdoor advertising company in the early '60s, my first job with them they dropped me off on a new billboard site to dig 6 holes six feet deep, for six telephones, with a pair of post hole diggers. In those days' billboard people dug a hole by hand, I had dug hole before but none like this they were lime rock and gumbo clay. I had no idea what the first job I would be doing, I was not prepared for that, I had no gloves and no water. It was a hot July day I am in a field with no trees or shade around and no transportation in the middle of nowhere.

By mid-afternoon I had the holes dug, I am sunburned with some of the largest blisters I ever had on my hands, needless to say, I may be tough but I am not stupid. Lesson learned. I could have walked off that first day, but I am not a quitter I was there to learn everything I could about the outdoor advertising business. And that I did, by the end of the 3rd year I was running two billboard construction crews, on highway paint crew and a shop paint crew, for those of you that don't know in those days all billboards were hand-painted. Once I knew how you made and painted billboards, I was out of there.
