I came across these photos while cleaning up the pc and thought i would share them. Truly amazing! Not mine, and not sure who can take credit for it, perhaps Kyle Moore Collection?? Anyway, enjoy!

MY MY! I wonder how long it took to build a collection like that! When I think of the little collection I have, but all the time I've spent researching, browsing ebay and craigslist hours on end; traveling 300 miles for one $100 sign....

I recognize it. It appeared in PCM several years ago, and I believe it was a collection in Minnesota or someplace up north. I`ll try to find the magazine.
Good oil cans don't wait for people, people wait for them.

FOUND IT!! Through the kindness of several collectors, I have most issues of PCM and Check the Oil from 1982 to the present. It really helps with researching. This collection of globes and signs belonged to Alvin Mielke, who lived in Minnesota, and the collection was photographed by Ron Bettin for the June, 2007 issue of PCM.

I believe Alvin passed away shortly after the pics where in PCM.
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.
