Got into the Petroliana Hobby just a few years ago, with some prodding and guidance from my son-in-law, "petropumps". You should all have someone like him!

He has turned me on to some amazing finds, including two Romans and several one-of-a-kind, globes!

I have to also say, this site seems to have a lot of great guys on it, willing to share their thoughts, ideas, and knowledge -- I thank you for that!

Anyway, wanted to share with you a painting I had commissioned and recently finished, putting me in with some of my collectables (recently sold that 1925 Model T)...signs are a bit "subject", though:-)

Hope to meet more of you in the future!

Dave I like the globes, Yes you are right Jeff is a great guy and your daughter is a sweet heart. Got to spend some time visiting with her a few years back while picking up a pump at their place. Jeff has a way of smelling gas pumps from 10 miles away and has found some nice stuff in the past 20 plus years. With his help you will keep buying nice stuff BEWARE this hobby is addicting.

Thanks for the kind words Don. And we're in agreement about Dave's daughter smile Dave doesn't show off a lot of his stuff but in the last three years he's put together one of the best collections of Texaco and Indian globes in existence. I'm still slack-jawed every time I go over there.

Thanks as well for your kind words as well -- I agree on what you say about Jeff as well!

I feel I am one of your biggest buyers of wall sconces! Always a good transaction when buying from you!

Below are few of your sconces, in action! :-)

Pumpingethyl,

Thank you for adjusting my photos... I need to figure out how... did it again (below) :-(

Photos look right when they go in... comes out the "Meat Grinders" differently
