Picked these up yesterday.

I have been looking for a Golden Fleece Bottle for so long now. Finally got 1. Also a nice Wakefiel Castrol & Mobil.

Your welcome Randy.

I buy a lot of treasure off this sight as I have a American collection going at the moment.

I also have my Local Australian collection. So I just thought I would shear a few shots of my Australian collection.

Our collection is not real big aw we both only started 12 months ago. But it`s a start.

Below are some Golden Fleece tins from My Dad`s & My collections. It`s classed the most popular & sought after brand in Australia. Along with Ampol.

Kind Regards,

Scott

Has to be one of the most colorful collections! I have to say I really like those graphic bottle tops! They look great all sitting together like that.
The Shell rack is a joy to see!
Great looking collection, thanks for sharing!!


Admins, are those some higher than normal res pics or is my machine jacking up?

Yes those images are 12 megabytes each. Nice for printing or projection, but way too much for Web viewing. Slow loading even for many broadband users.

The images could be resized from 3,744pixels × 5,616pixels to 640pixels × 960pixels and they would display the same on the forum while using 1/100th of the memory bandwidth and transfer time.

Great photos of seldom seen stuff in America!

Thank you all for your encouraging comments.

It`s a pleasure to share this with you all.

I am seeking advice on how to edit my current post so I can resize the images for better viewing.

Fiddy,
I resized your images to 640x480 and 960x640 to make them transfer quickly and still display very nice. Any time you need help with images like this let me know. We love to see stuff like this! Thanks for sharing them with us.

While it's still fresh in your mind, experiment in the TEST AREA. Once you get it down there will be No stopping you from posting Images!
