A few years back, I bought 2 Tok 39's off a farm that was rented to a guy I know. Several years pass, and I run into him at an auction sale, and he asks me why I didn't buy the pump that was sitting in his Quonset? I was pretty puzzled and asked him to explain, and he told me that it was there when I bought the other 2 pumps and he wondered why I hadn't bought it too?
I told him that it was never mentioned and I asked if the farm owner still owned the pump. Since he did, I called him the next day and bought it on a bet since my friend had described it to me. I was worried what I might have purchased until I drove up and found this old Wayne 851 in pretty darn good condition! All the bezels and light shades were in great shape, and one of the lamp shades still had the original mesh screen that stopped critters from getting in! Funniest part is that I was 50 feet away from it about 5 years ago and didn't even know it existed! LOL
I sold one of these about 7 years ago and have regretted it ever since, so I think this one gets to stay!

IDK?
I find a sign here and there. Typical stuff I find on craigslist is roached and beat to death with a $500 price tag on it.
But I am happy for the people who do find things like this.

Bought this globe over the weekend and am just getting a pic today. Found this at a farmers market of all places on Sunday. Didn't have my globe cd with me, so, thanks to Scott for allowing me to phone him from the market to get some info on it. Thrilled to add it to the collection.
Looking for early valvoline, freedom-valvoline, franklin pa items, Galena
