This is such an odd ad. The ad compares the Jeep to the RCA 501 computer that does bookkeeping and more. I wonder how long this joint campaign lasted.

Late 1950s? Jeep Sign on eBay
Cool sign!
“Awesome old Jeep sign. This sign is lighted. The interior part has 3 neon light baluster. 2 of them work but the third does not work. It is possible that it is supposed to be a blinker bulb or something and maybe that is why it doesnt work. It measures 4’1.5″ long x 8″ deep x 13″ high. It is being sold as is. As you can see there are some scratches and fading on the front. The metal frame is also rusted but seems solid. Add this sign to your show room or garage and it will be a great conversation piece. If you think its over priced, well its a Jeep thing and you wouldnt understand.”
1955 CJ-6 Introduction on eBay
East Penn Jeepers License Plate Frame on eBay
Seth spotted this unusual item.
“garage sale find: older heavy duty frame and plate with a cool older fifties or sixties jeep…….remember them ? great graphics on plate with the frame needing some TLC or POLISHING. selling cheap as found at $9.99 and no reserve. may look good mounting it just as it is !!! unfortunately the heavy frame will add some costs to shipping (about 3 lbs) to the costs. If I am way off (more than $3 ) I will return some of the shipping charges…….this is a ballpark guess for the listing. Priority mail shipping with tracking and insurance added free. check my 100% feedback to bid safe every time ! see my other auctions for more rare finds”
