We always see plenty foot traffic at the M-D show. There is an outside auction area, they usually are selling motorized
farming/landscaping items. the indoor collectible auction also draws a good size crowd. so you get some car guys and many others who are curious to see what we have.

The Collectible/Country Store Auction (bldg 12) is in the building right next door to the show (bldg 9). Auction doors open at 8 and the auction begins at 9. For a preview go to www.parzowauctions.com and click on the March 8th Americana Auction. They've got some great stuff this year, including a SHELL collection. The Auction and Mason-Dixon Gas are not connected, however both benefit from each other. We just happened to schedule our show the same weekend as their auction For more details on the Show our email is masondixongas@comcast.net or you can call me (Keith) at 410-796-4474

Lenny,
I'll see you there. Don't forget my Gulf cans. I'll be set up outside with signs.
All vendors bring your 12 oz. brake fluid cans and dented 1 quart cans that you can't sell elsewhere.
Thanks,Don

I'll second the group shot Doc! I'll be bringing a camera. I'll likely have my Front Range Gas Bash shirt on, although it'll probably be cold enough that I'll need a jacket on. If you see me stop and say hi.

Any idea if there's a rain plan for the outside vendors? It's looking like rain Saturday morning.

A little far for this boy. Looks like about a 5-6 hour drive one way that I would have to complete both ways in one day.
Have fun all and take some pics!
Always looking for Ithaca Gun and Lucky Sam soda items!!!

Hey Guys,Just an up date on the show. I recived a few call about the outside vending if there is bad weather, so I wanted to let everyone know that we will do the best that we can to move those vendors inside if we have extra space. Most of the outside vendors have larger items that can remain outside if they wish. We have picked up a few new vendors in the last couple days, including one man that is bringing about 50-60 globes. It looks like there will be a great vendor turnout and another great show. E-mail me with any questions. Thanks Keith
