Good Post!

I pretty much just collect globes but I do like the things from Old Dutch Refining. Old Dutch was a small West Michigan marketer that started in the late 30s and only had around 30 stations at the their high water mark.

When I was growing up on the farm in the 60s and 70s we always used Mobil fuel so I thought it would be fun to put small Mobil display toagther also.

I think collecting and grouping items togather from a specific brand makes a great display.

Lets see some more!
