Had a fun week! Found a Sunland sign that has eluded unitl now. Also picked up this pump and it came with an original Sky Chief Gill globe and lenses. Keep them coming everyone!

GM cans are still full.

My BOTW

I have expanded my Lubester lid collection lately and I wanted to wait until I got them repainted before I posted any pictures! I have a girl here locally that is very talented with a paint brush, and she has done some lubester lids for me before with great results!
The Texaco lid came from ebay, and was pretty rusty when I got it. I love the restored look of these things, and the Texaco has enough different colors to really stand out!
The Socony was purchased from another Old Gasser and the simplicity of it really appealed to me. It was already in primer when I received it, so painting it was only natural!
I have had the Magnolene for several years and it was painted red with white letters when I got it, but it was so drab looking, that I had never displayed it. I used the background from a Magnolia sign for the coloration and after it was all done, I had her paint the Magnolia blossom on it freehand! It really turned out nice and make the lid very attractive!

couple pumps for me this week...

I bought these Cities Service cast lenses at Iowa Gas last year and I finally got a nice enough body to install them. Body is NOS and a really nice piece in itself!
Another great addition to my growing collection of Cities Service globes!

Got these at a auction today. Special thanks to Bryce and Randy for helping me load them up.

picked up a globe on Friday

Got this lot from a very nice local collector originally started as a trade for two of my cans for one of his did that deal and the longer we talked the more he added to the pile. Another good guy to deal with.

Awesome pumps John!

Last few items.

great buys everyone, i love the skychief pump

for me saturday was a fantastic day, I went to take my first original gas pump globe, it's a 1940's clamshell globe for shell in milkglass, sadly it's cracked but it's still complete and not in bad condition, it's really difficult to find some here in Belgium as many didn't survived war and bombing during WWII





I had to find a good place for it nexto the my other shell cans



I also found an elektrion conical can from 1940's

I got this Filmoil sign at metropetro. I have always liked the sign and wanted one, I know condition is weak but I like them in all different conditions...I'm glad to finally own one.

This sign was face down on the floor of a chicken coop

talk about turning chicken s*** into chicken salad....nice Veedol sign

finally got an air meter... my first one. came from the same collection as John's pumps he posted, along with the Cities clock and can. Picked up a new project pump in Terre Haute as well, busy weekend!

Nice stuff! Bryce,you gotta watch it,those clocks are just like pumps,gonna multiply

so true Mick!... I have 4 or 5 now, and am always looking for a good deal on a aztec clock and/or a Chevy dealer clock

One gallon chassis grease can.

I was finally able to add to my Veedol collection of one. Now I have 2. Lol

It feels like there is still about 1/4 left inside.

...are the 'Service' and 'Parts' signs wooden? I believe they are International Harvester signs...

Yes they and they are from a local Internation Harvester shop in town. I was wondering if anybody would catch that.

...a friend of mine has the 'International' sign in his collection - so they looked very familiar!

Hi called me two day and said he found the broken off part for the s on parts. Do you have a pic of the one he has? and was there more two it? Thanks Scott
