Over the past few months I have become very interested in the Trico company and items they used for service stations. I never really payed close attention to wiper displays until I picked up my Trico lighted sign. I liked the graphics they used, so I started to acquire more Trico items. From what I have read, the founder of Trico invented the wiper blade in Bufalo NY. Trico blades were made there up until 2002 when they moved to Mexico frown. Trico was also well know for the vacuum operated wiper motors. Feel free to show your Trico items as I would like to see what is out there. Here are some of mine:

Here is my Thermometer:





I also have a NOS one of these (D-117) in the box. Only one I have ever seen. Unfortunately I have not found any hose reals to hang off of it:
