We stopped at a Sinclair station and bought these items on the way home from Iowa Gas in 1995.

Jeff had put together an impressive collection in the few years he was collecting. We've managed to add a fair number of items in the 7 years he's been gone. I'm going to post pictures of two more items when I close out the feature on the 30th.

There are several items that have eluded us so far. Sinclair used many different cardboard signs and paper posters. We only have a few of what was used.

I have a thing for gas station blueprints too, but I don't have any prints of Sinclair stations.

There are several cans that we are missing. The Dino Track and Road composite with green and white checkered upper and red lower area is at the top of the list, as are striped cans from the 20's.

We're missing several other quarts, handy oilers, and grease cans, ad glass, globes, signs, car care products, etc.

I'm looking for the ultimate gas and oil collectible.....a porcelain gas station. A two or three bay Sinclair station preferably.

If you have any Sinclair items that I haven't shown so far please post pictures of them in the next few days. I'd appreciate an email if you have any Sinclair items for sale. You can reach me at Lastgas15@aol.com

I relied heavily on a few collector books while I researched this feature. Gas Globes, by Benjamin and Henderson; Collecting Oil Cans, and More Oil Cans For The Collector, both by Miller and Sonewald; Sinclair Collectibles, by Henderson and Benjamin. Much of the information came from the items in the collection itself, maps, lube guides, catalogs, etc.

Thanks to all those that have emailed compliments on this feature and condolences for the loss of my son. I also want to thank Karen for putting up with my collecting obsession.

Feel free to start posting your Sinclair items. Common or rare, we want to see them all!

I finally took the time to look at all the pics, very very impressive grouping, I wish I had something Sinclair to contribute. Bob, you are to be congratulated on your efforts keeping these features going. Its easy to conceive these things but making it happen and keeping the steam takes the work, and you've done a great job, and selected the right people to back you up, a big thanks to all those involved in these features, Well Done!
