Nice score, that Chevron red is absolutely blood red in that light and the slate boy is cool too, right by the flour porcelain sign!

Great stuff there minuteman. Love that Red Head. Glad to see it back in Alberta where it belongs. Last week I spent an interesting weekend at a two day auction of the collection a long-time garage sale picker. The absolute best part of it was that there wasn't a single collector buddy of mine there. The few antique mall and flea market vendors that I knew there pretty much let me get most of the service station advertising pieces I wanted. The quarter-sawn oak table was even too good a buy to pass up. Cheers, Don

Hello all. It's been a busy summer so I haven't posted in a while, but I have managed to find some time to collect and get a few restorations done. Survivor Bowser 575 with matching pump plates, Ford baby V8 sign, restored an ECO 93,97 and I had a Willard Battery Charger done. My favourite recent find is the Supertest sign which originated from a local station that I frequented with my Dad when I was just a kid. Cheers,
Daryl
