I've patrolled the Internet for companies going bankrupt. I'm certain that everyone at Gardiners Furniture HQ hates me on some level, for CREATING a waiting list for their signage when they go out of business:

I've trekked through the ghettoest parts of the city, looking for boarded-up strip malls or Churches of God, with no luck. Some friends who know of my mission point out marquees, vinyl banners, and the Claddagh's sign (pretty sure I'd need a blow torch and a crow bar for that one).
So I'm here to say: people, people. My letter needs to be all of the following:
a) legally acquired. A gift of an awesome "G" with a vague back story of its origination counts, btw.
b) serif. I'm 99% sold on this fact, however if anyone knows of a Long and Foster office that's about to kick it, I will happily accept a Helvetica Neue G:

c) between 20" and 60" wide (or high). Yep, size matters. If I wanted a little guy, I'd just go to Joann's or whittle my own:
