ebay 121298278922 Does anyone know the history on this. There are several of these places along I-10 close to me and I have never seen one in the store before. I know most were a Texaco station and I believe a few were also Sinclair. But these could also be before my time.

Sorry to say this topper is fake. The seller has about 30 different user names on ebay. Sells fake thermometers, toppers, door pushes, fire king mugs.
The most valuable commodity I know of is information-Wall Street

Looks to be a new fake. I look at toppers weekly and have not seen Stuckey's (real or fake) before. I can almost assure you that they will begin popping up along with other brands based upon this same stamping. Topper buying is getting to be very risky business.
