Just wondering if any deals were scored. With the weather so nice I rode my motorcycle all day so I missed it. Just waiting to hear about the stuff that was there so I can kick myself for not going.
Keep pumpin' Chris

Chris, I went to that auction both Friday night and Saturday. Friday toy auction was interesting, many Tonka toys in their original boxes. One prototype strange looking vehicle brought $875. Saturday had many good signs and some great Mobil signs. The most unique items were a Mobil Aviation Windsock about 12 feet long that was in the original box and brought $775 I think, and a Mobil Vision Service Thermometer shaped like a windshield with the flying Red Horse and like new brought about $625. A wide variety of signs rough to great and some pumps including a model 17 Fry, 660 Tokheim, rough Wayne 60, Bennet Clock Face and a few others.

Wow guys! Thanks for the replies. I'm kicking myself, but only lightly. I probably wouldn't have been able to get much with as light as my pockets are. It looks like a lot of fun was had there, though. Man, that neon pegasus is gorgeous!!!
I had plenty of fun on the cycle so all was not lost. I'm still working on the pumps I have, but that cheap tok 300 would have been fun for a sit-in-the-den pump. And a 646 would be pretty sweet. Oh, my fun is only limited to how many pictures I can see and how much I can afford! Thanks again for the follow-up!
