I'm looking for a pic I've seen on the forum of a wall of Chevron signs from Roy's original collection. The wall was all wood with a heck of a collection of Chevron pump plates, ad signs, etc. Does anyone have a copy to share? Done various searches to no avail. Appreciate any help. Thanks?

When I'm there I only actually "see" about a dozen things and then my brain goes into overload

Ironheadtom - Thanks for the pics. The pic with the Carter Carb Repairs is the wall I'm thinking of. Just to the left you start to see a bunch of Chevron signs. There is still another shot out there of that part of the wall, that I would like to see. Thanks for posting!

I look at that, then my little collection, and realize I've got my work cut out for me... Oh and the need to hit the lottery to afford many of these pieces, outstanding collection! Thanks for the pics!

Lots of nice stuff...that ride looks like a bit of folk art, taking a standard horse and adding the wings the paint etc. Cool!

That ride is not folk art, there is an identical one in a collection here in St. Louis.

I guess I've been working with too many carousel animals! It certainly looks unique. What kid wouldn't want to ride a flying horse!
