Our goal at this job site was to remove the original Phillip Morris sign and place it safely on a custom-made trailer for transportation to the Phillip Morris Museum.

The sign was solid bronze and of unknown weight, approximately 14 feet in diameter and 3.5 inches thick.

Our services included supplying the crane, the operator, and safely placing the crane in a position on the street (sidewalks were hollow) where it could handle the shock load of a piece this large being pulled away from the building.

While this was taking place, Phillip Morris was filming as part of a documentary about the history of the company.
