Had a great time at Iowa Gas. Brought a lot of stuff home for the collection.
First up is a Sinclair Gasoline Ethyl globe, probably the newest of the Ethyl globes that Sinclair used;



Also got a Kerosene lens, tough one to find. I need to find a back lens for it



Also got a few signs. 30 inch Opaline. Has a bunch of touch up and buggers on it but another hard one to find;



Got an upgrade for my vertical Opaline, thanks Kevin;



Also got a Washing sign to go with my Lubrication sign. I was told there is another sign that goes with this set, same size and design;



An old Opaline flange sign. Not the greatest shape but another hard one to find;



And a NOSSITB (New old stock, still in the box)rest room sign

Couple more things;

An oil can rack sign. There is also a pump topper sign, same design but bigger. Watch out for repos from the AAA sign company;



Stock spray can, 5 gallons, thanks Scott;



Anti freeze and 5 quart Extra Duty can;



Set of Dino letters, not old, probably from one of the stations still in buisness today;



Another NOSSITB item, a company award



Also got my one item from the other week framed and lit up and hanging on the wall. Got a picture frame from the local thrift shop, made some modifications, added a light tube and hung it up;

Got a great STP double sided sign, early 5qt Humble Can, Monkey Grip Can, and the Indian & Mobilgas signs. Also found a lot of great non-gas/oil items.

I went to a swap meet today with a small amount of money. There was a lot of petro for a automotive swap meet. Would have liked to come home with a pump (there was at least 25)but not enough money. I did get this nice Gilmore pricer and a Bennett door. There was two doors but could only afford one.
