Here is a few pictures from Mike Slamas bash in Portland Oregon. It was 27 years ago and I think his first one.
Maybe people there you might recognize.
When we say back in the day, stuff was easier to find but still had to work at it. Then again you had to work at it to sell also. No EBay or cell phones then.
I had that diecut Husky sign for sale at 2500.00 and took it home. No one even looked at it. Lol

Wow - thank you for posting!! Lots of good memories attending Mike's gas bash with my Dad. Last pic looks like Bill's wife Nina Thomas in the sweat shirt. They managed to find and offer some real nice pumps over the years. My Dad's first visible pump, a St Louis X-ray, came by way of Bill and Nina.
