Wow!! Really? I'm not even going to touch that. Your collection is actually very nice!! It was seriously just a joke.

BTW, did you send Steagall a PM like that too??

Thanks for sharing. Youve got some real nice stuff and its neatly displayed. Were the oval Mobil globes used on the cabinets after the Gargoyles? I guess they would probably say Mobiloil if they were.

Beautiful collection. I, myself found the Calif. highway 1 sign very cool. I was stationed at Fort Ord next to Monterey in the 80's and got to spend some time cruizin' sections of that road by motorcycle. Scenery to die for. Fort Ord's gone now, sadly and I can't fit my uniform anymore, but I'll bet the highway is still as great as always.
