I really like display racks and counter top displays. I didn't include any pic's of my oil can racks, radiator hose and fan belt displays. I usually buy every display that I come across that I can. Here's a small sample of what I have unpacked so far. Most of my stuff is currently packed from my move.

That windshield warmer is very cool - never seen one before.

Any idea what time period that is from?

I'm thinking mid 30's based on the illustration of the car windshield and the wire having braided cloth.

By the way, that cabinet you have is "OFF THE HOOK"!

Daniel , I like your themed displays . They really look great being a complete looking display's rather than a few pcs. This thread keeps getting better and better . Keep it going . Lots of things on here that some of us newbies have never seen .

I purchased this WEED stand from an antique shop in our town over 30 years ago. The sign area is all original and quite nice, with no touch-ups. I did re-spray the metal parts of the stand with the correct color green way back when....something I probably wouldn't do today, given how much collectors now appreciate "as found" pieces.

It's my understanding that boxes of different-sized Weed tire chains would have been stacked on the shelves. I've added glass inserts to the metal shelves, so I can more easily display gas/oil cans and smalls on them. John
