...that place was the worst-kept secret in the state...did you get the aluminum-sign Texaco Marine rack with the seagulls? Didn't see it in the pics...
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

Great pictures.... Really cool to seeing this stuff being unearthed.
One question - When you asked John if he could drive a forklift, did he reply "I can drive any forking thing made"?
