47 minutes 19 seconds ago Sign identification book by 47reotravis

I already have the fine art of petrolina published by Dan Matthews but I was wondering if anyone had any more information on any other good books that might be purchased to better educate one on the orginal sign sizes used ,just have felt the need to ask lately as we seem to be seeing so many small signs sold off as authentic pieces when they we not even made say in smaller versions such as ,did they even make a sinclair 12 " oils stripe sign? Thanks any info appreciated . Travis.

49 minutes 6 seconds ago Looking for a few signs by dwright

I'm very interested in purchasing the following signs (or similar variants) in 9 or better condition:

- Frontier: 6' "Raring To Go"
- Phillips 66: 48" orange and black
- Conoco: large die cut triangle (not sure of exact size; maybe 36" or so?)
- Kanotex: 6' round
- Barnsdall: large round with "Barnsdall Products" around outside and "Be Square" in middle
- Houston Gasoline: large round (yeah, I know... but one can wish!)
- Pegasus cookie cutter: left or right facing

I'm located in the Dallas area and would be willing to travel a few hours each way to pick up / meet for any of the above signs. Further than that I'd need to have the item shipped.

Best way to contact me is personal email at 30xmod@gmail.com

Thanks for reading and for keeping me in mind!

Today at 11:54 AM Attaching advertising sign on gilbarco 1006? by Wallster

Does anyone have a photo or diagram that shows how the advertising (illuminated face, "PREMIUM" copy area seen in the rendering below) is shaped and/or attached to the pump? I've looked everywhere but can't find how this is supposed to be assembled.

thanks,

Wally

Today at 11:30 AM venues to sell fakes including this one by ddkinsey

There are many venues to sell fake stuff. Swap meets, shows, auctions, estate sales, private party, web sites and of course ebay. Certainly Oldgas is not immune. I am puzzled that my posts are banished to the cellar, ebay forum, reproduction forum. The views immediately stopped or slowed way down. If discussing this huge problem in the general forum is inappropriate then our hard work and time is for naught. Case in point...the spring show this year in Escalon had a moron show up toting a curved Mohawk sign. He informed us "for visible pumps and several knowledgeable people said it is old." This was the first time I became aware of these bogus curved signs. He was allowed to walk around the show with the piece of **** under his arm for way too long. If it had been up to me I would have asked him to put it in his vehicle or leave. Ebay is the most accessible to the most people and will have to best positive effect to slow this scam down.
One more point my last two posts were moved yet Scott B's post about the fake globe was left to run in the general discussion. Hmmmmmmmm In closing I was invited to join this site. If you are going to muzzle me what is the point?

Today at 11:19 AM Help With Identifying Pump by cubbybear2004

Hi:

Can anyone tell me the manufacturer of this pump, circa and an opinion on value?

The face plates say A.O. Smith on them, but I believe the pump is a Neptune.

Also, the pump needs chrome strips around the windows and ad glass. Anyone know where to get those parts from?

Thank you!
Jason

Today at 08:09 AM Firestone tin/metal sign. Help date please. by SC62

140977258671
This has some numbers that may tell the date. Can anyone interpret them for me to give the date? Or give your opinion of what you think the date is. I'm guessing 70's, but.....

Crazy cuz I just saw one of these, but faded very badly, in a shop this weekend. Guy wanted $185. I offered $100. Wouldn't take it. It was faded at least to a level of 50%. Glad I passed. Would rather have a nicer one.
