My buy of the week:

Here is what I was I was able to come up with this week.

Thanks to a couple friends I was able to ad this Seaside sign and Wayne Station lighter to my collection. I mounted the lighter to the Gilbarco for now be will eventually end up on a Wayne.

nice original paint flying A....love that green!!

A moment of silence please for my Phillips sign.

Dennis, the cans look great with the display.

Well Scott at least they left the Phillips 66's ring alone!!

kinda looks like the chalk outline at a the scene of a homicide and in a way it is......

Here are mine I found the Texaco Checks in a pile of junk at an old station awhile back thought they were cool and worth saving.

Bought the globe (rarity 6) back in July but didn't want the guy to ship it - finally got it picked up this past week.

Skelly blender came from a fellow old gasser who had it listed on here. Not a fan of the square tops but do think the blender pumps are cool. Seems like most of these pumps were associated with Sunoco - this is the first Skelly that I've seen.

That is the economy grade. Not 66 just 6!!! LOL

Found this neat early Richmond Rings tin sign this week

Wanted Invader Oil.

Ted Czerechowicz (TC on Old Gas), sent me a list of globes he had for sale as he wanted to concentrate on just 3 or 4 brands instead of having a Heinz 57 collection of nearly everything! Of course I wanted to buy several, but restrained myself to purchasing this gorgeous Red Indian on a screw base body!
Ted also collects Cities Service and has one of the most complete collections of Cities globes around, and because of that, we've gotten to know each other quite well. He has been to my place a couple of times and since he had sold over 20 globes this time, he decided to deliver them all instead of shipping them! Well, it works out to nearly 5000 miles, but he's having a nice time and will be stopping to see several contacts along the way.
After crossing the border and stopping in Michigan, he motored right on thru to Devils Lake and finally got here about 1 AM on Saturday night. We stuffed him into the guest bedroom and called it a night. We were up early for a tour of my collection the next morning, and then pulled out my purchase from the big load of globes he had on board. We did a quick inspection and then headed into town for breakfast. We had a long conversation about our lives, gas & oil, Old Gas, and anything else we could think of, and then Ted headed down the road into Montana and then north towards the Calgary area!
Its things like this that make this hobby so enjoyable! Great friends, great stuff, and great times sharing the passion we all have for collecting these items from the past! What a great time! Drive safe Ted!

Great story and awesome globe Kevin!

That's a big dude...

It has had a hard life.

Here are some more of mine. Nice wide body, GM Polishing Cloth, Mobil Burner, Standard thermometer, and I got 3 of these DX Power Premium pump plates. I have not cleaned up the DX pump plate yet except the lower left corner. Looks like it will clean up fine.
