Good lawd,that makes the barrett jackson auction look like child's play. There is a small fortune sitting there.


I am always looking for anything Texaco or Oklahoma oil and gas company's, also I am a newbie at seeking globes.

Top of the market or not, its gotta be tough to walk into that empty building and think about all the memories and experiences that are now gone by the wayside.

That means the buyers are either little players or know nothing about the market and are buying high???
I dont know anyone who knows the future in any market, stocks or signs.
Many times over last 25 years, i have said who would pay that much for a sign? Only to wish i would have bought it, and have in my collection today.


Wanted early tin litho signage.
petro, farm, auto, etc.

Looks like some great signs from my quick look. Wonder if this is the same Walker family as the ones that used to make porcelain signs? I can tell already I won't be a buyer based on my current sign buying budget. I don't know why they are selling but I would hate to see them all go at once if it was my collection. Then again, you can't take it with you..
