Picked up this near mint Amalie sign dated 1950 which I had the privilege of pealing off the paper to first light. Also picked up a Direct Oil Company can out of Nashville, TN which I have never run across before. Another neat piece is the Tan-kar pump plate which appears to be some sort of transitional piece between that and Kerr-McGee. Finally a great Bennett 541 I had been after for some time.

Picked up this Wayne 276 that is really nice. The seller told me it was removed from the carriage house of a member of the Pew family estate. From what he told me and what I researched a member of the Pew family was one of three founders of Sunoco. Pump was cranked over before it was removed and it was still pumping fuel

I have been working on this globe for over 3 yrs, it originated in Oregon and ended up in North Dakota. It belonged to the Grandfather of the gentleman that i bought it from, the 1st time i went to see it, it was balancing on top of an old cabinet in their dining area!! Very happy to have it in my collection! This is an original picture of the station it came from and the pump that it is sitting on top of.

got another Sweney can for the collection, still needs cleaned up. Funny thing is I remember bidding on it over a year ago at a local auction & not winning it... glad it finally found its way home!
