First are my show buys. Bowes has the rack but I took the sign out. Cool Blue Streak sign and the Beacon radiator core flange marked Nelke NY.
Next are my auction buys. Great wall coverage with the 6ft Nourse sign. Then against my mantra of "never buy anything with a dial again" The graphics of the clock got me.

Got this Shimmy sign from an oldgasser after one sold on ebay. Finally got the Billups from another oldgasser. He suggested I distort the photo to slow the reproductions, magnets, ect.. from showing up.

Here are my buys from the CTO show. Very happy to get both but the MFA sign made the 8 hour trip worth it. I have been trying to get one of these signs for several years. Two years is a row that the CTO show has produced Some great Missouri items for me  
Originals only for me. Always looking for Simpson oil, Super A, and MFA oil cans and globes.

I didn't make it to Columbus this year, I always love that show and typically find some cool stuff. I was happy to find some cool stuff over the past few weeks since I couldn't make it to the show.
The Chevrolet sign is a pretty rare size, It's 60" in diameter, double sided. Enjoy, Keith

Looks like some nice buys from Columbus guys..... Not a lot for me lately in the Mobil department. The 5 gallon was the nicest I had seen offered of this Magnolia can. The Socony Lubrite was a $15 Ebay gamble that paid off as it cleaned up pretty good I think! It's a tough one to find in good condition and will fill a void in my collection until a minty one comes along. The Metro 2 gallon is a rare one that I was surprised to find at a local antique mall. I conferred with Richard (Pegasus) about the can and while I paid more for it than I would have liked to, it's from the White Star Ohio Division of Socony-Vacuum. I saw one other one like it on Ebay years ago, but I can't remember if it was White Star or not. We agreed while the condition was not great, would I ever get the chance to upgrade this can? Possibly not...so I bought it! The second pic is some misc. quarts I bought a while back from an Old Gasser that I forgot to post. I like placing these with globes from the companies to make a nice display. Darin

...probably the last post before the new BOTW thread, but better late than never, I guess...a couple of things I got at Columbus...a Chevrolet dealership thermometer from around 1977:  ...and an original nickel-plated brass Red Head attendant's belt buckle...  ...I also finally located a single 13.5" Gulf Marine White lens for the back of a globe I bought 13 years ago...that globe was complete, but due to a perfect storm of poor packing and some butterfingers at UPS, one lens arrived in pieces...
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...
