You guys did good last year .Here are my buys of the year , Flying A sign , Veltex sign , Mobile Globe , and Frontier globe . They all came from the same source . I'm very grateful to have them but I'm not happy about why I got them , sadly its because a really good guy passed away.

I’m really looking forward to this year’s BOTY topic because we have had so many great collections changing caretakers. There have been members who added multiple new items to their collections and there have been some that just added that one piece that really made it a special year for them.
I really enjoy this forum and all who participate in it to make it what it is - a great place for fellow members to share with others who have the same interest in the hobby their enjoyment in Petroliana, and their great experiences they have had throughout the year.
I really hope everyone will participate in this year’s BOTY thread regardless of the way the post was originally started. I personally know some collectors have added some great items to their collection, and I know there are a lot of members here who would love to see them. If we could just move on with this topic as it was intended, that would be great.
Below are some of my favorite buys from this past year. Some were acquired from fellow Oldgas members and others from some of the auctions that have taken place over this past year. Happy New Year everyone, Keep them coming!!
Ps Great stuff so far!!!
Wanted anything Flying A Gas, Signal Gas, Hancock oil co, and Sunland.
Thanks Anthony

Probably my Derby Flexgas globe.
I had the lenses in 2015 - but it took 16 months to locate the correct body for them.
So I finally got to display it in 2016.
Later . . .

Great stuff everyone and Happy New Year. Been a light year for me as my Challenger restoration has taken a hit on my fun monies but it's almost done so 2017 should be back to normal LOL!!!
I know I picked up a few more this year but these are my highlights that stick out!
