Been busy again. Went to the Fishersville Va. antique show Friday then spent Saturday morning at a country store and toy auction http://www.opferauction.com/ , then off to check out what Morphy auctions has coming up. Shortly it will be a run around Adamstown Pa. for the antique markets that have already started at about 4 this morning. I don't need anything. I will wait until it gets light.

Just had to throw those few pictures in. You always see neat things when you travel.

I bought the Squirt Snowball.

Here is a picture of some local to me shoe signs that I would love to have. But way over priced for the condition. I am patient , there is generally another someday.

I bought the case of Exxon hats.

The first picture with the Gulf sign is of Philip's set up from Gasoline Alley http://www.gasolinealleycville.com/ Nice guy always has some great stuff, went to Dixie for the first time a few weeks ago. Check out his neat store.

Got to put in the spill for friends every once and awhile.

I picked up the barber pole sign and the oil can at this show.

In the evening my self an a friend called a friend to see if he would keep his antique shop open until we got there. I bought this Orange Crush dispenser and he gave me this Gulf oil can. My buddy bought several things as well.

On to the auction the next morning. Left early, could not sleep, gout in the leg from the hamburgers I knew I should not eat.

The things you see. It's a good thing this auction was mostly small items. I don't think this guy could fit much more. I have friends like this. I am not there yet.

I picked up several things not gas and oil related. There were many great toys at this sale and country store items. Check out the web I posted at the beginning of the post. I had never been to this sale before but I have been to other sales with this auctioneer and he always has great stuff and is a very good auctioneer.
I guess he looked to me for a bid at one point based on what I was buying and found me dosing. Between the 4 am drive and the pill I took for the gout, I was out. I woke to the joke. All fun.

What can you say about Morphy. Unbelievable ! Anytime you are near Denver Pa. you have to stop and preview. Case after case of the best of the best. It's going to a museum that will all be for sale.
They display for all the auctions that they have coming up for the next several months. I took just a few general pictures of the thousands of items on display.
