More pictures added to website, still uncovering more items. Found 75 FULL cases of metal quarts and 5 quart Oil Cans, approx. 6 different brands. These were leftover from when the garage closed back in the early 60's and are being moved for the first time. Many clocks found in 1 of the buses along with many signs stacked behind other stuff. Auction is Sat. Nov.13th, with Preview on Friday the 12th and Sat. a.m. Check the link for 250 photos http://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/photop...8&kwd=signs

Wow! Wow! Wow! That's a lot of good stuff there. Wish I could attend. I already see more than a few things in there that I want. Too bad there's no online bidding and shipping service available.

Any shipping service thru an auction is usually ridiculous.
PM me with your wants and I can bid for you and take care of the shipping myself, saving you a bundle, Rick

6 hours is nothing to be surrounded by other collectors and Oil cans and signs and maps and bottles and blotters and posters and signs and cans and displays and clocks and pumps and lights and did I say there were cans and signs too.

After looking at all the pictures I was thinking about it. Then I looked at my calender. I'm going away that weekend for my 10th anniversary and it's not to a all day petro auction.
