Hi,

Would anyone know where one of these signs are located? They are light up signs which used to be displayed in New Holland farm machinery dealerships. Thanks.

I don’t know who does repop can labels anymore since we lost DB. He had a bunch of art for them and used to print them and the decals. You might ask Gaspump Rob if he knows where that all went after Dick passed. The others that come to mind that might know are Dan McGuffey (Mcguffeyd1)and Bryce Gillespie(BryceG)….

Hey Bob, Ron Scobie should have one. rscobie@gaspump.com

It’s time to offer this 1934 Texaco (black T) tanker truck keyhole sign for sale. It measures 10 5/8” x 15 ½”. I picked this sign up in south Texas – Harvey and Lois Newberry owned a gas station in Mathis many years ago and this sign was passed down through the family. It is a single sided porcelain (SSP) die cut sign that I had authenticated by The Authentication Company (TAC). They scored it at 8.9 and valued it at a minimum of $1,250. Their report will be available soon on their website.

As you can see, it is not perfect but it’s in pretty good shape. It is missing three of the original seven split-back mounting grommets.

$1,100 shipping/insurance included to the lower 48 states. A check is preferred. Will accept PayPal as well. My email is deaconmark1@gmail.com if you would like additional information or photos. Mark

Looking for any vintage lighter fluid dispenser for sale?

Lavorn, The thread you brought up is 15 years old! If you are asking about a book Dick Bennett bought, he passed away some time ago.

Yes, I have one, I believe to be an original.Will post pic, Down in Fl on the way to Dixie next week.

I literally grew up in the brick house in the left corner of this photo. Jack and his wife were like family, not just to me but to everyone they made friends with in our small town! Jack left a huge hole in our community. If you could only have seen their tiny office space plastered with decades of pictures! Pictures that showed the faces of everyone who was part of their lives; employees, friends, family, pets ect, all right there on the wall. It was an example of how many lives they touched!
Everyday I hope they find a way to keep the spirit and memory of this place bright and cheerful as everyone remembers it!

Frontier Oops!
It is now looking like I may be wrong on the frontier Genealogy and perhaps the Round 6’ White Frontier sign was the first sign produced? Sometime after 1940 when Frontier started selling gas. I only have one pix of a White Frontier sign at a Station and the car in front looks 40s. Perhaps the White Keyhole was next and it was followed by a limited number of Golden Cowboys? I have pix of White Keyhole signs and the BURDICK Sign Co that made them went broke in 50. The golden Cowboy is a mystery except I have a pix of one at a Station in Rockport WY in Jan 49. So we have those 3 styles all produced between 40-49.
Any help or info will be greatly appreciated.
Some of the Red Frontier Keyhole signs were dated but mine has no date nor mfg on it. Anyone know from when to when they made them? I’m guessing it was 1950-55 as there are a lot of those still around so info has to be avail somewhere.
Thx for any info anyone has. Sparky

I have a lot of these cans myself so also interested in any further information on them.

Still looking for a Bowser series 300 visi guage with the outlet to the vehicle at a 45 degree angle. I would truly appreciate any help you might be able to offer. Have other gauges for trade or purchase outright. Thanks

Still looking for a rocker switch. Any help would be appreciated.

That was a treat!! almost felt like I was on the East Coast Thank you all very large, was nice of everyone to share their photos.

30 years ago, at auction, these large signs would bring only $200-$300 and that was a hard sell. Gotta love inflation, huh? Paul www.severngaspumps.com
