That time again...........

I'll get this started. I was able to buy another juke box, a 1962 Seeburg 160. The Juke box is the same year as this 1962 Studebaker Lark Daytona convertible that I bought yesterday.

I thought, I had posted these items in last month's post.

Porcelain sign

Neat stuff Dave

Cool......Barnacle Bill The Sailor!!!
I hope he doesn't sing the song!

I bought this oak stand, restored by friend of mine, at an antique show that I was selling at the other week. It now hold most of the general store tins that I collect. Also I acquired a porcelain Sweet Caporal cigarette sign a few weeks back. I've had the longer tin one in the same condition but never seen this porcelain one before. The last photo shows an example of the tin sign that they probably cut up at the factory years ago to make the corner support brackets. A shame, but they were probably plentiful then. Cheers, Don.

Been trying to get this old neon clock for years out of an old grocery store here in Albuquerque, Prescience finally paid off .

Its always a rewarding feeling to finally get something you've been working/ waiting for...makes it all that much better..

LOL Dave !!

have been trying to avoid bigger non petro stuff lately but hate to see stuff like this ready to be scrapped, '75 Suzuki 185 and a cool cast iron base.

some pieces I picked up Sunday.

My 2nd embossed AZ state route shield. The whirling log has been photoshoped out of the arrowhead. Not many of these survived WWII or after because of that symbol.

That's an incredible sign! It's unfortunate the need to photo shop the whirling log out of the picture because some are ignorant of the meaning of the symbol.
