Another great show at Peotone. I got a few things, the 5 quart I thought was an upgrade but it is actually different from the one I had. The anti freeze can is from Scott and I believe the Mens sign is a Sinclair item, the colors look right for it;



The Pennant globe is from Team Hopp. They made me a deal I couldnt refuse;




Parco was a company out of Parco WY. They were bought out by Sinclair. The town then changed its name to Sinclair WY. I passed through the town once, there was still a Sinclair refinery there in buisness;

Picked up a few things for my collection. Several vintage cans for my auto paint - body shop collection. Two Steelcote cans with nice graphics of a car being brush-painted, a BPS Auto paint can and a Martin Senour Wagon & Tractor paint can. The Buick Sales & Service "barn-hanger" will get touched-up and hung outside my future shop/garage. The Rustoleum sign has such great farm graphics that it kept calling me to buy it. Almost automotive.

I've picked up a few Tydol items that I'm told are somewhat rare... If so then I've been very lucky lately... LOL

I won on ebay a small printer's block advertising Tydol gasoline. I knew I had seen the logo before, but couldn't place the time period, until I won a newspaper ad dated June 1933.





Also was lucky enough to pickup this Tydol item. Haven't seen one on Ebay before.



Once I had the battery service kit, I went looking for a Hydrometer. Now this type was most likely not at a Tydol station back in the day, but who knows?...



Lastly picked up a couple vintage anti-freeze cans from the 30's.

I think I had read somewhere (though you would know better) that the name tydol first appeared on products in 1920, so your Tydol knight printer's block could date even earlier...

So, if it could be inked without damaging it, will you be using it on all my letters and cards, or at least on the back of any envelops you send out? That would be so cool!
