My one buy at Columbia was the cool rocker can. I'm buying them again, this time looking for ones I've never owned. Johnson was a pick up as well as the cool Lion sign from Katfish and Vickers from Matthews. Bosch was a trade. Had a great time at the show.

Here's what I got last week.
First a porcelain Sinclair sign, almost 30x30". The sign comes from the family who started Stockholms first Taxi garage. I have never seen any Sinclair items in Sweden before, but after I published a picture on our facebook group, a friend sent a picture of a Swedish Sinclair can. It has this logo and the name of a Swedish import co.

The tin Gargoyle normally sat on the side of an oil cabinet. It is pretty good but still have a few stains.

Yes, Shorty Jones was very generous with me and has allowed me to become the keeper of this globe for my time in the hobby! I just happen to have the other 2 15 inchers that go along with it!
I promised him it would never be sold and would return to him when I was ready to part with it! That may be a long time, I hope!
Shorty and Bobby Jones are great people and I sure appreciate doing business with them!
