Great pictures, Tom.

Anyone know who had the keyhole Mobilgas special tin sign for sale? (in the second posting). The seller is also seen in the third posting, selling the Sinclair can to Wes and Tara - I am intrested in it or a one like that for my A-38.
Thanks,
Claes

Mike and I were honored guest at JJ's speech on all the different ways to break a globe. Here in the photo, JJ is recreating the correct way to do it. Notice the expression on his face, the way he stands and holds his hands....I didn't mean to do it..oops!! If you could have only seen Mike's face, of course I was in awe! Enjoyed all the photos. Next year, JJ said he would be teaching Globe repair! Ha Ha

Rick and Bob do an EXCELLENT job hosting this show. It is always really fun and productive for me. They are nice enough to open their homes up and provide refreshments at no cost. Both collections are beyond spectacular. Thanks for the pixx Tom and especially thanks bones bros. for all the work.

The chocolate chip cookies were killer at Ricks house (right John and Dave) and so was his collection as well as Bob's. Fun show as always. Half of the fun for me is visiting with the guys in person that I talk with online or the phone.
