Paddy, will see you and Maurice at Columbia. I won't be bringing any pumps to the show, but I do have a nice Bennett DM-150 clockface that I would consider selling. My place is on your way to the show so you could see coming or going if interested.

I will be going for my 14th year and getting there early Friday morning. Anyone bringing any unrestored, original 1930's electric pumps to sell? Or a clean, straight, original paint, cheap $$$, Tokheim 300 with no doors? Hopefully it's not like a couple of years ago with freezing rain and ice falling. Remember that?

That ice storm was terrible that year. It took us 13 hours to do a 6 hour trip home and then we did not have any electricity for 4 days.
Last year was very cold Thursday and Friday nights but was nicer on Saturday.
Bill, looking forward to seeing you there and I can stop by Carthrage with Paddy to meet you.
Looking forward to this show.

They fill the building by rows starting at 11:00. Experience has shown that they like to stay in order if you need to pull through the building to unload. So,if you have a trailer to unload,it would be in your better interest to be there and ready to go at 11:00,unless you can carry your items in the front doors.

my buddy and I will start production on mounting rings for 24, 30, 42 and 48 inch signs around the middle of Feb.
I am in need of some rough 24, 30, and a 48 in signs (already have a 42)....condition and companies are not important as long as they will lay somewhat flat. We need them to make sure each ring we make will fit the sign properly...don't want to use any of my good signs for this....PM or email me at texaspelican@yahoo.com

Because of surgery we will not be able to make it again this year! Hope to make it next year. Will miss the show and everybody. This past year plus has about made me go stir crazy. Can't sell ,can't buy and can't even look!! If it weren't for Matthews and Aumanns auctions, they would have to have put me away!

Just got off the phone with John Troxel. I haven't mailed in my registration yet. He said spaces were still available.He doesn't have the floor map of the spaces with him this weekend. Have to call him Monday at work. I will be beside Roger Cherry. Looks like the weather will be great for mid-winter. Highs in the 30's
and lows in the 20's. No snow or ice called for at this time. Pat.

Im sure somebody will have pictures for you Tony. I just got to the hotel in St louis after an all day event at Its A Gas. Had great time again this year. I picked up two nice globes and I met a couple of oldgassers Souperhigh and Texaspelican. Both are super nice guys. Well see you later off to Maryland in the morning.

I thought the show was great again this year and I was able to buy stuff at a reasonable price. It was like most shows, there were some things a little on the high side and some things that were really priced to sale. I had a great time i wish i could have been there Saturday as well.

Jim,
correction on the pumps... one was a Butler and one was a Wayne 615.

Doc,
Like any auction or show some was high and some was reasonable and some cheap. Plenty of items changed hands that is for sure!
Thanks Pat for the hull body!
