I'm glad to see the Collectible of the Month feature going again. Thanks, Paddy, for volunteering to host it. Let's support this feature by posting images and a description or story if you have one.

What is collectable of the month and how does it work thanks rick Nelson It sure would be neet if you could talk the old timers(looks like there are quite a few)into telling more about the old days of collecting. Any thing to give us something to day dream about and maybe give us some ideas on things that are being thrown away now that we will be kicking ourselves over later. thanks

There is a new format for Collectible of the Month. Paddy will post a topic each month with a focus on a certain type of petroliana collectible. Members are encouraged to post pictures of their items that are the type of collectible that is being featured for that month.
The new twist is that Paddy has the option to focus on a specific company's items or a certain collectible item from many companies. This month it's license plate advertising toppers. Another month in the future could be Wayne 60 gas pumps or Shell gas & oil signs.

Dave, We welcome petroleum and automotive related toppers. Sure wouldn't want to turn away that cool Pittsburgh Motor Club or the figural motorcycle topper.
