Went down to Montana to p/u some neon signs I ordered, and while Stateside I managed to pick a few items including a Gilbarco Pump, Anco Wiper Cabinet, and a couple small Texaco pieces. Here's some of the items I bought today.


(Gilbarco 996 Electric Pump - Nice original pump)


(The cabinet's dated 64 and is in pretty decent shape)


(Back side with the front lid opened up)


(Texaco plaque dated 1955)


(Richfield Neon Repro Sign)


(Imperial Oil Grease Bucket - Mint)


Texaco Letters from Old Gas Member - O was chipped during shipping - see picture 5 above :-( )

All in all, a fun day scouring the small towns in Montana. The pump will be restored, and a couple of the other pieces were bought with friends in mind where some might go to their collections. How rare are the Imperial Oil Buckets and the Texaco Plaques like the ones shown?

Thanks

FYI,

That Richfield is a Repop sign from Tom Petty in Michigan. I bought a Texaco sign as well and had them via Greyhound in 5 days. Double packed really well and tubes were wrapped in foam so zero breakage.
