First of all, Exide items were mainly things that had to do with electricity. The stand you show us in the top picture (I fell out of my chair trying to lean over to look at the picture, shouldn't do things like that at age 81) is a grease rack, meaning all the items that were on the rack had to do with applying grease to an automobile.

I could probably find a ad/brochure showing the rack you have, but it would take me at lest an hour to turn pages looking for a picture. Hopefully someone here on OG will be able to identify the rack and if they post it here, I will be able to find a picture of it for you. I sell literature so if I do have something on the rack I will let you know the cost.

Here's what I've found with pictures - if you take them in one orientation, they will post that way, even if you rotate them in Windows photo viewer. What has worked for me is to open them in paintbrush, rotate them there, then save the picture. Then they post on oldgas the way you want.

Your unit is a Alemite DeLuxe, Specialized Lubrication Display Rack.

I found a picture of a square one, but everything else is the same. Someone wrote on it "$99.00 net complete."

No date, if I find one I will post it.

The picture does show all the grease guns that are missing from your unit.

Thanks jack. I found a grease rack that sold on here about 6 months back that shows the grease guns. They said the grease guns are numbered? But can't prove that. I would share the link on here but have no idea how to lol. I need to go to computer class I guess. It also showed it on a stand from the back and the back was yellow on that one. Other than that I can't find anything else. Thanks Again

Still looking for a picture of one with the grease guns. I would like to find what original ones look like? or did they just use any thing? I has one guy say they just used anything. I hope to find all of them some day. Thanks for any help.

Scott,
If you ever find a picture of the grease guns, let me know, I have several Alemite guns laying around. We'll see if we can match any up.
