Rex.....the flyer looks GREAT!! I did see a couple of small errors....I think it's the Beltera (not "Belteria") Casino on the last page. And on the 3rd page it says....One of the best Mobil Oil collections & "relative" brands. I'd say "related" brands, but that's just me!!!

Rex, I got your auction flier in the mail last Sat. I was surprised (plesantly surprised) as I hadn't ordered one. Looks like a great auction, with lots of premo items! Can't wait! just wanted to bring this topic back to the top. ------------------ Don "oltoydoc" Sherwood Vintage Gas

Thanks for all of the positive comments guys. I am looking forward to a great 3 days of fun. BUYTEX: hope you get what you want. As a matter of fact, it is important to me that my collection goes to people that will enjoy it. db: We have enough winter mice in our log house, don't want to go to Disney and bring some more home. That is a great idea. Let's all get together one night. It's OK if JJ buys. There is a McDonalds about 15 miles away. LOL. There is over 40 Mobil globes. There should be some good buys. PUMPS TOO. Again, I hope that everyone gets what they want. ..................... REX LIKES AUCTIONS

Wow, Thanks for the catalog Rex. My wife and I were heading out the driveway when I stopped to get the mail, once I seen the catalog arrived, I made her drive so I could check it out. This isn't an auction but the petro event of the century. I'll be there for sure.

Well, the big event is getting closer!! Two weeks from today it will all be over. The whole amazing collection will be dispersed across the country, and a bunch of us will have some really cool new items to share on BOTW!!
In the last month I've been lucky enough to handle just about every one of the 1100+ lots in the auction, and I can assure you there's some really great pieces available. The pictures online and in the hardcopy catalog are good (I took quite a few of the pictures!!)....but they really don't do justice to many of the items. When you get to see them in person, you won't be disappointed!!
Of course, most of the Mobil lots aren't really that good......so my advise is to save your money and bid on all the other things, like KYSO, Chevron, Atlantic, Aetna, Sinclair, Texaco, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, etc.....!!!
