The Frog Signs Team
About Us
Frog’s began as a weekend hobby of Mel Dollarhide. At car shows, Mel used his artistic ability of custom pinstriping as a way to earn additional income. Those extra funds supported his hobby of building Harley Davidson choppers and later hot rod cars.
We frequently hear “where did the name Frog come from?” The answer is simple. It is a nickname given to Mel early on and it stuck!
In 1987, Doug, Mel’s son joined on and Frog’s evolved from a weekend hobby to a brick and mortar business. The two worked side by side for over 25 years when Mel retired. Today, Frog Signs remains a family business owned and operated by Doug.
