Ok everybody I looked the list of lot numbers over, I didn't catalog the Gilmore items expect for the globes, John Mihovetz did and I think he did a great job.
#18 "it says paper label" I think that says everything
#172 the tin flange sign, I looked at it and it looks good, I will lead paint test it when I get to Vegas and we will see.
#376 Paper weight I have no clue
#382 Paper weight pen I have no clue
#544 Plaster Statue I have no clue
#556 Five gallon can look right to me
#559 States in the descriptions that they are not right
#569 I dont know
#574 says it is a repop
#578 I dont know
#579 looks right to me.

Some of the Gilmore stuff was highly questionable, and when I wrote descriptions, I described them as so, even on the known fake or fantasy items. After spending a week cataloging for this sale, I will admit, that I missed one or two pieces, and for that I apologize.
HI FIVE!

Those prices were all for singles. That was the hammer price, so ADD in the buyer's premium!  BrianH

Anyone here attended the auction in Vegas? Wish I could have went. I bid at the computer, and won a few minor lots...  For a Gilmore guy, it might be awhile before another one (with so much Gilmore) comes along...
Sell me your Gilmore Oil Co. stuff...
