IMO Killer havoline pennant, few other items, The Ivaline is flanged tin but the other side is a bit ruffer

You had a great week Tankar. Great pieces! I'm going to have to find a Wayne 50 showcase and one of those killer Havoline Pennants.

Love the Ivaline sign! Picked up a pedestal air meter this week. Now have a wall mount and a pedestal coming to Peotone. Also scored 5 NOS Sanitized Rest Room signs. Came packed in paper dated 1938.

Mazda lamp display I picked up locally and all the bulbs still work. A friend of mine found the origin of the Firestone sign to George Eberlin from Missouri. Its a nice 4' wide size.

A couple pumps I picked up yesterday. I really like the M&S 80 Mobilgas Script Top with the mobilgas pump plates. I am going to give it a good cleaning and display it on my deck as is.

I agree, very clean survivor pump. Even the script letters look mint.

Here are some items we picked up over the weekend.. We first saw the globe about 10 years ago in a collection and always wanted it since.. It is from the Red “C” Oil Company from Baltimore, MD. We are constantly looking for Red C Items but done ever find much so this globe tops it off! It’s in great original condition with the original body..

The Goodyear flange SIGN is NOS, probably never hung.

I’m not too sure how the Victor globe was used, it’s about 10”” in diameter with water transfer decals on both sides.. It’s defiantly an early piece, I’m guessing of a gasket display?

Thanks,
Keith

Yeah, It kind of burried itself in the soft dirt. Gonna pour an island this weekend. Have lights in both and the pumps even work.

Yeah the clocks a bit strange, but it came as part of a package deal. Took the pictures down to keep this thread to Petroliana and will post other pictures in non petoliana.
