Its been quite a week for me! I was able to purchase this pump and then buy one of the rarest non-petro signs around! (posted in non-petro)Probably the nicest Wayne 71 that I've ever seen come thru the pages of ebay!
I had some excellent help with this one from my good friend Jonathan Lowry in Georgia and I want to thank him for his assistance in getting it picked up and packaged up to be transported!

Well, this is my first time having anything to post in the BOTW thread even though I look at the pictures each week. I think I did pretty well. The first image is from Friday and the second from Saturday. My mom was a bit shocked with the size of the Atlantic sign... not really sure where I'm going to put it but I just had to have it!

Anthony that's my first viewing of a BSA can. Is it common/uncommon or rare? What vintage I'd it? Fred

I think they are fairly common, it date's around mid 50's. The collector I bought it from wasn't going to sell any, but I was able to talk her out of the worst one she had. I'm going to drain the oil and pop the dents out. It should look great after that as the paint on the can is in great condition. Thanks Anthony
Finally got my first pump and it's a very strate pump.

I'm having a tough time imagining, the amount of perseverance and diligence (and money) that would be required to round up 24 of those bottles.

I've got "one", that would be a lifetime accomplishment & that might not be long enough... cool
I was lucky enough to find the perfect item for the half bath:



My camera, is not able to do this advertisement/poster, justice... It is fantastic looking, IMO.... LOL

THANKS for the comments on my Havoline oil bottle rack. It took me about 4 years to find all the Havoline bottles, they just don't come up for sale to often .

.. cool

gotta love those bittersweet 2nd chances at something you missed out on... thanks to Kevin, this Cities sign made its way to me.

and I think I have a new hoarding problem with these oil can drain racks!...



I picked up a pretty rare Nourse 7" paddle sign but cant get picture to load off my phone. It is not in perfect condition but not total junk.

I'm pretty sure 99 percent of them are painted
Posted By: Steven C. Re: BOTW: "BUYS OF THE WEEK!" - May 19th - 25th 2014 - Sat May 31 2014 03:09 PM
I like it Noah!! Sometimes if their to perfect they look like repops. And a little character makes the price more comfortable. I would love that hanging in my garage. Nice sign!!

Based on American Oil Cans book, mid/late 40's to mid\late 50's it appears.
