It had clearly rained hard before the show started. Grass was soft and wet. Prime to become very muddy. Only rained for a short while on Thursday otherwise nice cool weather for the weekend.

Lots of venders at this show and lots of fantastic items. Seemed to me to be less buyers then normal. Everyone I talked with indicated they had a great show.

In the first picture I caught Paul taking a break and catching up on his internet skills. Maybe he is posting on Old Gas ? {Laid back at Dixie}

I thought these four little signs that Gary Metz bang were the best at the show.

Chip always seems to have some construction going on at his property. Notice the new building. His son Levi and his friends spent the weekend excavating the gravel in front of the concession stand. I wonder how many buildings will pop up in the next thirty years.

By the way granddad {Happy} is looking for a rear wheel for his road grader. He is wanting to help out Levi with the landscaping.

On Saturday morning I took a drive toward town to check out the eleven miles of yard sales. It seems to have quad tripled in size since two years ago.

Thank you for taking the pictures!

Well what did I buy, not much but I had a great time doing it. I bought a Speedy cup which I crushed by the time I made it home tonight. I bought a Moxie tray identical to the one I already have. Your collection is getting out of hand when you start buying duplicates because you forgot you had one. Really I thought the one on the wall was my brothers , but his is in his storage pile.
I also bought a Marathon cap, some Tabaco tags and a cooling fan sign.

More pictures..



Some original artwork signs for diners.








More space was used to setup this year and more vendors were in attendance according to Chip.




Half the fun of such events is meeting up with other sign guys of course.



Rich brought these unusual die-cutters - Look to be Burger King and other restaurant related pieces.



An interesting Coca Cola 48" set on pole.

More pictures from Dixie spring 2015

Pumps? Down to 3 I see!



I traded for this cooler, seller claims it works.... we shall see.


Vendor Appreciation Dinner on Thursday. Brauts or BBQ





An oddity, a small parking meter.



My buddy Steve brought some re-creations of vintage dealer signs for those with tighter wallets.


Panorama of my row
