Picked this sign up this week. I am not an Oilzum collector yet but I liked the look of the man on it. It is double sided. The back side has more chips in the center but you can read the lettering on the bottom. The man was named Oswald. The sign advertises for the White & Bagley Company of Worcester Massachustetts. Oilzum came about in 1905. The Oswald logo came out in 1910.

That "Look into it!" sign has super graphics.

They mostly made general purpose and house paints, but BPS did make auto paints. I've got a BPS automotive chip brochure and the can pictured here that looks like your sign. Hard to find BPS automotive stuff.

My buddy wasn't helping me move the pumps out of this shed. He felt bad and offered to take the last 1 which was the heaviest. The extra wide extra heavy 36BTydol. Holy ***** is that heavy.

It took two people and a winch to get my reg 36b out of a yukon. I think the weight is in that cast iron base. One heavy Pump shocked

I think the majority of the weight was dragging on the cargo liner making it harder to move, but these are heavy pumps(this one had all the guts).

Until you become an Egyptian King, you'll have to use your head to move pumps instead of your body! LOL

I stumbled across this oil cart last week and couldn't resist. I've been looking for one for about 6 months or so and found this one about 3 miles from my house and the price was right. It's probably a little rough for some of the veteran members on here but I loved finding a local piece and wanted to share.

Of course it will need a full restoration (i'm thinking Sinclair Opaline) but it's solid with no rust holes, still has the original dip sticks, lids, and both pumps are in working order. It's missing the wheels and axle so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
