POSTING THESE BUYS OF THE WEEK FOR WES MAXWELL....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I did some after Christmas shopping to add to my Sinclair collection. The Dino supreme was from ebay. I think it was part of a gas pump. The no smoking signs were used at Sinclair stations.
 
 
The oil well sign has a couple buggers along the edge but I am still happy with it. The Motor Oils sign is double sided tin.
 
The rest room sign is also double sided, a few chips but a good shine.
 
The wire rope is not oil and gas; I got it to try to resell.

Here's a 6' Mobil shield that I picked up last week.
