I cannot believe I am just now becoming a member. I have been collecting for only about 12 years on a casual basis. The short version of my story as to why I collect Gulf memorabilia is that my Grandfather owned a station in the 50's and 60's and he started my interest years ago. I just recently in the past 10-12 years started collecting signs, posters, map holders and whatever I can find that interest me. Anyway, I am glad to be here. My inrerest in collecting has hit a faster pace since my grandfather passed away a couple years ago. Well, I plan to spend the weekend evenings looking around the website. By the way, if anyone has a set of the porcelain GULF letters that go on the outside of the station I would be interested. The other item I would like is a lighted Gulf clock. Thanks for your time.
