Is it four-sided, tapering up with the Conoco triangle on each of the four sides? And does it have a hole in the center of top?

NO,, IT IS ROUND, WITH A LARGER BASE AND IT STEPS UP TO AROUND 6-8 INCHES? WITH A ROUND TOP,, I DON'T THINK IT HAS A HOLE IN THE TOP??

T-Bone! Thanks for posting my pictures.. The poles on each side of the one in the middle I just rescued from an old CONOCO Station that shut down in the late 60's.. I couldn't believe they were both still standing out by the island with a real nice Conoco base for a curb sign..The old man that owned them sqaaid the station opened in the late 40's.. These do not have a Conoco emblem on them.. The other one came from StRod in Denver it is older as I have a picture of a Conoco station from the 30' with three of them in the picture.. So T_Bone GET R DONE!! Thanks Ric

T-bone, Go get it and then sell it to me for a profit! That sounds even better. I need a pole for a island light. Does it have the 2" hole in it for a pole?
Looking for anything from Hoosier Pete, Platolene 500 and Red Bird.

DuceCpe, I am looking for one of those with a threaded 2 inch hole at the top for my pole island lighter. Would you want to sell one?
Thanks,
