Wow! must be slow out there in collectorville. All this sign collector has found is a bunch of old cans. Got an extra in the photo if anyone wants to step up.

I picked up a few Richfield items from a long-time Richfield collector, and super nice guy Walt Weber. Here is a nice NOS 2-sided Credit Card sign, hanging in the garage. Thanks Walt.



Will trade for PowerLube ... Craig

Love the Richfield Western Eagle graphics! Here is a rarely seen Richfield lubster-size sign, with a slight curve to it, like it went on a pole, or round lubester, or ?



Got PowerLube? Just checking.... Craig

Got the Quart Cans on the Top Row back from the talented Dick Bennett...need a lid? Dick is the man.

Picked up an unusual Richfield Thermometer from the Walt Weber collection, with the Richfiels Eastern Eagle. Neat piece!

Have you East Coast guys seen very many of these Richfield Thermometers? Are they common or rare? Curious only ... I likes them thermometers.




I likes the PowerLubes too ...Craig

Thanks Craig.
I just bought ANOTHER lid machine.

Here are some of the latest additions to my Mobil collection. The older Handy Oiler and Gargoyle can are from Russ Jacobs. The 1 gallon Freezone turned out to be one of the nicest I've seen. Sometimes it's hard to tell on-line how nice things really are. The one gallon Cylinder Oil can came with the original shipping box, which helped keep it in near mint condition. It cleaned up beautifully. The 5 quart Lubrite is one I hadn't seen, so even though it was in lesser condition, it will fill a hole in the collection until a nicer one comes along!



Here are the latest additions to my Mobil map collection. I had neglected this area of collecting for quite some time, and it's been fun looking for all the variations of Mobil maps through the years. I think I have over 25 different versions now.

Click on picture for larger image. I found this Plasticville gas station this weekend with unusual little cars that I've never seen before.
