Haven't seen too many porcelain Keystone Auto Club signs, but might be because I am in Arizona.

A couple of signs from antique shops bought on a recent trip to Vegas. The Stewart&Nuss sign has the nicest shelving and pop that I have seen on a sign. Apparently an active mine company out of California

No,

I bought it in the evening in CT. and sold it the next day in Mass. I generally like to keep things at least for a while so I can enjoy them. But it was big and the opportunity was there so I let it go. I did get a nice porcelain Lowe's Paints sign from the deal to add to my collection.

Hey guys I just came across this awesome cleveland neon clock that just got taken down off the building it hung on for many years. The neon is broke but the clock part works. I'm thinking about getting a custom top made and a new clock face or I'd really like to find a nice used original face. Any leads on parts for these? It also seems like they made they're own plexiglass front as it is not curved like the usual ones I've seen.

I don't know when they stopped using them but when you got back to your car and had a ticket you could drop payment in slot with ticket and pay right at the parking space.

Very nice! I've only seen a handful of these clocks, and they were all in very rough shape. Yours must have been hung either covered or indoors. I don't think this particular clock ever was intended to have a marquee, so you may have to get creative. An uncommon clock, very nice find!

Thanks , I found it on Craigslist on Christmas day . The guy said it was in his grand fathers house for 40 years and he gave it to him. This is the only big display that I saw with these clocks is photo below but it is stainless steel and well made so it has held up good where ever it came from.

Henry you get the best stuff. I mean that sincerely. Love the "Lay or Bust the Milk Maid" Sign. And what's with the Lithiated Lemon drink? Sounds extremely good for manic depressives! And Pluto "America's Laxative" drink, yuk. Hey I smell a theme here. Didn't you have a eneMan Fleet ad? LOL.

Ene Man !!!!!!! Never thought of it but I guess you could say there is a theme coming threw.

A friend at the flea market bought several cases in two sizes of Ene Man !!!!!! dolls. He also has a stack of calendars as well. Ene Man !!!!! is a real super hero. The sign I picked up from a friend at a yard sale. Fleet is a local company.

My sister is a nurse and some friends so guess who came to visit for Christmas. Ene Man !!!!!!

NO WAY!! An Enema balloon at Macy's parade. NOW that should have been on Seinfeld. They used Woody Woodpecker ballon/float in the show. This would have been more interesting-especially when it was punctured.
