I had a pretty good week and was able to get this 16 inch Cities Service truck door sign from another Old Gasser by swapping him another Cities Service sign that he wanted! Worked out great for the both of us!
I got the NOS Occident Elevator grease can from Jody Arthoud when I stopped to view his collection last week! He said I had won the door prize for that day! LOL
The Frontier can was an Ebay purchase from Maurice Campbell! He puts some of the nicest cans in the hobby for sale on ebay and they are always "no reserve"!
The Farmers Union 100 can was also an Ebay purchase. I have been wanting one of those for a long time, but the condition was always bad, so when this one came up, I jumped!
Hope everyone else got their "FIX" and were able to get a few nice items!

Here are my buys from the Hoosier show Saturday in Evansville.



Here is a buy that I made this past week from a guy in the Los Angeles area. Been wanting a Packard for a long time.

I bought this porcelain Wayne 400 at the Evansville show on Saturday. I couldn't wait to get home and put a Sky Chief pump plate back on her. Now I have the perfect spot to display the Sky Chief topper that I bought at the Evansville show 16 years ago or so. Thanks goes out to the vendor who separated the pair.

I love Sky Chief pumps!

Had the choice this week between a really nice Skunk Oil (Stinker) can or this, for within a couple hundred or so bucks the same money. I think I made the right choice.

Yeah, he was kinda overly proud of the can.

I had bought this Marathon Ethyl lens a few weeks ago and finally threw it on a body for a photo op! This makes my 5th different version Marathon running man globe in my collection now.

I was able to "steal", the bottom marquee for a "Shop Clock"... It wasn't until it arrived here; that I found out how large the marquee really is....



This puppy is approx 36" wide (outside to outside) and close to 20" deep (top to bottom)...

Mick, has offered to help me find or more likely "build my own" clock to fit the marquee... But I'm afraid the finished clock would be bigger than my 1 car garage.... LOL

So, I'm not sure what I am going to do with it?.......
