Wow ! Kim That is a very good haul. Never seen The Rio Grande Cracked Gasoline signs before. Must be pretty rare.

Why don't I ever find these things? Are these true finds or ebay buys?

You're in an area that is much older and way more populated than Mississippi so you might want to change your tactics. None of mine came from eBay. I recently started selling and advertising that I buy on Craigslist. It has made a distinct difference.

Great Buys this week everyone!
Here's my only buy lately, but I couldn't resist with the graphics and subject matter it was just too cool to let it get away.

Well for some reason I have not tried the ad to buy on craigslist. Does this really work? Everything else I find either the price is through the roof or its destroyed. Just getting harder to find things these days.

Well. over the past couple of months I've had 3 people contact me from CL-the first netted a Gill bodied and a glass Capco Texaco, the second a rare/scarce Cities Service Ethyl, and the third netted a 42" Texaco and a 42" Pan-Am, several smalls, and 5 globes, one of which was a Lion. That's in a state with a small, low income, population.

Going to antique malls and word of mouth was getting me nowhere and we only have one worthwhile show a year and no swap meets.

That may have been my lifetime allotment used up in a couple of months, but at least it materialized.
