Was there something for everyone with that many signs? Or were a few deep pockets buying a majority of the rare/quality stuff?

I know there are a lot of guys with great neon collections, but that has to be right there at the top!



Just got home. Prices were strong even for less desirable non automotive/petroleum related signs. Seemed that 6-8 bidders onsite bought over 50%. Phone and Internet were also active. Strangely it was cold and it snowed.
Saw a few oldgas members but not many.......different crowd.


Collect small Oklahoma Oil Co.'s 1920's-1940's. Barnsdall, Cushing, Eason, Marland, etc.

Yes, saw the results. Some strong prices, but quite a few good buys or reasonable for sure. Other great chance, but could have been worse with more buyers. Premiums had to add also.

One of the three auctioneers that called that sale lives here in Clinton, Illinois, and has hawked a lot of Mecum auctions, mainly restored antique tractors. I talked to him this morning and he was really impressed at the prices, but did say there were some reasonable buys.I told him that even a reasonable one was out of my range.
