A new pump (American 900) added to the collection thanks to Tom Buckles. When I started collecting in 1995 I thought a couple would do but this is model #61. It has gotten out of hand!

Nice stuff everyone!!
My only purchase was from Dan McGuffey ( mcguffeyd1 ) in the Old Gas auction for DB. The Soap was something DB wanted before he passed and the can was a special addition from Dan as it was a fantasy piece from DB.....They both will remind me everyday of a special, Grumpy and educational friend that we lost too soon!!!!

Thanks

I was able to purchase this nice early porcelain 36" sign with the help of two fellow oldgas members. Thanks.

Happy to own it but know nothing about it's origin.

A fellow Oldgas.com member tipped me off about the Flecto can on eBay. I love the old auto paint cans with graphics of cars being painted with a brush. It had a "Buy it Now!" and I did. smile

Great looking cans Jim. Do you have a photo of all your cans together? I have seen a lot of them you purchased through the years and I bet that would make a great picture.


Thanks, Phil

Thanks, Phil. A good sample of my collection is on OldGarage.com if you'd want to browse through it. One of these days I'll take the time to put more stuff in the photo gallery there.
