Rescued from the Recycle center....



Older plates. Sets, frames & an old Local therm from tag sales....



Hope the rest of you did better than me!

THANKS!

Picked up this nice Autolite battery rack that I committed to buy back in January. He arrived back from Florida recently and I went and picked it up. While I was there I saw this neat Rochester Carbureter sign as well.

Attended an auction and picked up this other cool Fre-Flo Rubberset sign. Barn_Raider you need this in your General store!

I picked up the the last two tags that I needed (the "D" and "G") this week.

I picked up a ton of smalls, and other non-petro items over the weekend.

Took a chance on ebay. Seller with zero feedback in PA. Only one picture of the front with a buy it now. Shipped out of Anaheim CA. I guess grandpa had it in the garage for decades. Was covered in grime that cleaned off well.

More Pics

Picked up these two cans:



And these Wash and Lube Signs:

I've had a pretty good couple of weeks, I picked up a couple of Veedol posters from the 50's;



Also a NOS Tidewater Flying A radiator hose box and a Flying A fan belt and box;



Was lucky enough to stumble upon a Jenny gas stick;



And lastly, a couple of Veedol outboard cans;

Picked up this Glasscock Coke cooler and three more RARE glass negatives of the 1915 Kentucky Derby Winner- Regret! The first filly to win the Run for the Roses and only the third ever! Finish line photos and two in the winners circle. May turn out to be the best non-petro find ever!

I have been looking for this particular pump for 5 plus years as I had pictures given to me of it. Finally got it last week. Nothing special just took a long time to find it.

Picked this up a while ago but just recently got it linen mounted, it was very thin, can't imagine many survived. I was told it was found behind a wall of a house in Spokane last year. it's about 6' by 4'.

Bought this G&B 86, American visible and Shell sign for an old collector. He also has a Monarch wood burning stove I am trying to buy.

SUPER FINDS, Bob the pin-up era veedol is all right. Big fan of this type of signage.

My humble little haul, i do love the Whiz crate though

Here are a few of my dad's buys last week at Carlisle.

I have not posted my buys in quite awhile. Here are my buys from the past few weeks.


All cans are new & the bullseye lens is from a fellow old gasser.

Power X is a single lens from another oldgasser.


I think these cans got more expensive when the dealer at the flea market set them on his table & I about knocked over a roseville vase trying to grab them I was so excited to see two very early vaccuum oil quarts.

Hey racecop:
I'm an "old collector". Am I the old collector you bought the G&B 86, American visible and Shell sign for? If so, I'll take them.... Good score...Dale
