Well that didn't work....there must be more wrong with the code than just the [img][/img] tags. Email the pics to me and I'll post them.

The first one was a purina sign from a grain elevator company from Tenn, the second is a Harper's Ham hand painted sign I picked up at an estate sale around the corner from an old country store on the corner. [img=http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/3124/aug072813fq.th.jpg]

This one is an old RC cola sign I purchased from ebay, I have many petro items, but I also enjo [img=http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/1677/aug072828xe.th.jpg] y country store related item too.

This items found there way home with me. The Viscoil is a Colorado company and I am a sucker for any items from the home state and the other can is Nourse which I can't seem to get enough of and the clock is from Ohio. Its a cool clock that I will try to trade.

POSTING THIS INFO AND ATTCHED PICS FOR MAXWELL.....

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello
Here are my buys of the week. Most came from Iowa gas.
 
The globe lenses were some duplicates I got from my brother.
 
I got the top Arco sign in the picture from my dad.
 
I got the almost perfect Sinclair sign at Iowa gas.

MORE BOTW'S FROM MR. MAXWELL....

The extra duty is almost mint with only a few very minor chips at a couple of the screw holes.
 
The Dino sign with the 4 cans on it was NOS still in the box. It had both tin signs, the mount brackets and instructions still with it.
 
The Nickel sign, truck and PD can all were from IG also.

I took delivery of this WHITE EAGLE at IG. Bought it from Russ Jacobs through this site in the FOR SALE section.
Now I have 3 differant versions, the Blunt Beak [also known as Cut Throat], the Crows Beak & Full Feather.

Anyone have a 1pc etched ? CHEAP !
