Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Showcase and Stories, Petroliana New Showcase feature. Please read.

It's my pleasure to welcome Hubba back to the Showcase team as host of Product Container Of The Month or PCOTM for short. Hubba's new feature will start on the first.

I'll let Hubba fill everyone in on how this new feature will work.

Please give Hubba and all of the guys that host our Showcase and Stories features your support.

Here's what our monthly schedule looks like:

1st PCOTM hosted by Hubba.

1st Company Of The Month hosted by a different person each month. Doc is in charge of sheduling and recruiting for this feature.

First week, every other month is "Remember When" hosted by Gary Drye.

5th Found Along The Way hosted by Poorman Curt Cragg.

7th is Sign Of The Month by Ted Roach.

10th is Collector Story Of The Month hosted by a different person each month. Tom 2 Tone is in charge of sheduling and recruiting for this feature.

15th is Globe Of The Month. I'm the host.

18th is Map Of The Month. Doc hosts this feature.

21st is Pump Of The Month hosted by Neal Dunn.

21st is Neal's Pump Challenge or NPC for short. We haven't had much luck getting this one rolling. If you have pictures of pumps that you can't identify email them to Neal for this feature. It could be a lot of fun.

25th is Restoration Of The Month hosted by Jason Roach.

Every Sunday evening Doc starts a new Buys Of The Week feature.

These guys put a lot of work into these features. Please post or submit pictures if you can. The more guys that get involved, the better these features will be.

Thanks to all the guys that host the features and to all those that submit pictures and information!

Don't forget to check out Curt's pictures and stories about old time stations in his corner of the world.

Thanks Bob. I want to thank everyone for making quart of the month such a success. Now that we ran through the alphabet of quarts we are starting PCOTM (product container of the month) which will include all containers big, small, plastic, metal, composite, glass bottles etc. Each Month will feature a different Company. Companies put out their products in many different sizes and shapes and it will be fun to see some of the different containers used.
