I am now out of my Gas Pump ID book and do not intend to purchase another 100 of them.

I am recommending to everyone, here on this website, and others to purchase a copy from Jim Potts here on this website.

I have not been in the habit of signing books purchased from anyone besides myself, but if you run into me at a petro show and tell me you purchased the book from Jim, I will gladly autograph it.

I am still the only person selling my Air Meter ID book, so if any of you are interested in one, just see my website: www.petrocollect.com

A very big thank you to all of you who have purchase any of my books.

Jack Sim

Jack, considering the popularity of both gasoline pump books and of course the Air meter book , shouldn't you expand an perhaps do a " Whole station book too ? " Ed Shaver

With what it costs to "self-publish" it is a wonder Jack was able to publish the 2nd edition of the pump book, let alone the air meter book. I know that both "pump" books have given me a lot of pleasure and knowledge. So Jack for all the effort, sweat and pain you endured in writing and publishing the books, I want to say thank you again.

I will extend a big thanks to Jack also. I hope to meet you someday and get that autograph and maybe have some beers and shoot some darts.

I, just today, received Jacks' book, 2nd edition. VERY nice! I especially like the actual color photos of the pumps, not that the literature pics aren't OK too.
Bought the book through Jim here.......best price out there too.
