There is a new format for Collectible of the Month. Paddy will post a topic each month with a focus on a certain type of petroliana collectible. Members are encouraged to post pictures of their items that are the type of collectible that is being featured for that month.
The new twist is that Paddy has the option to focus on a specific company's items or a certain collectible item from many companies. This month it's license plate advertising toppers. Another month in the future could be Wayne 60 gas pumps or Shell gas & oil signs. Collectible of the month has always been one of my favorite topics along with company of the month (wish that would come back). I have been thinking about it for awhile and finally ask Jim if I could bring it back....thanks Jim. We would like to see your contribution to this topic. Can't post pic's? You can email them to me and I will do my best to post them for you. Now let's see some more.
Paddy Wanted. Billups, Ride with Rose, Har-V, LORECO, STANOCOLA, Pan Am (early), Hurricane, Evangeline, Canal, Gulf Coast, oil companies.

How about a "working" topper? This Phillips 66 topper is on my 1934 Ford pickup to memorialize its service for 50 years at a Phillips 66 station in the Shenandoah Valley. The second picture shows the truck in its "work" clothes. It is now retired in California.
