I almost didn't make it due to health but got better Thursday overnight, so I drove out Friday and did some shopping in the rain. I'll post up what I got later. Been too tired to pull it out of the truck yet.

I felt like for what I was looking for, the basic 36" to 72" DSP and SSP signs such as Texaco, Sinclair, Gulf, that sign quality was low and prices were high respectively. Budget signs were way overpriced for the beginner collector and dealers weren't dealing much on them. I have no idea on the prices of the smaller, more unique and/or rare things. Some of them were great quality. I was also not there until about 10am Friday, so many things were probably traded or sold away by then.

My CTO haul!
Special shout out to Noah's relentless kindess on the small add glass!!!! grin
I have a special little display planned for the Quaker State signs along with two others I have and some cans.
Darn Tombstone, a nicer one sold for $50 less in the auction. But it's all good!! I'm happy!
And for $20, love the cardboard Nehi!!

Absolute incredible time doing the room to room Friday afternoon/night!

This was all I bought at CTO but had a great time anyway. I think it's legit but these 10" Texaco pump plates have been heavily faked so I'd welcome opinions on it.
