Hello! I am a new member here and am a fairly rookie collector of petroliana. Anyone have any advice on collecting they would have known before starting out? Also, I am currently residing in Wisconsin (back and forth between La Crosse and Kenosha) and would love if anyone can give me tips on auction houses, antique/vintage stores and collections, or swap meets in the area I could go to to expand!
Thank you!

Welcome to Oldgas.com!

Your location puts you within a worthwhile drive from big petroliana swap meets in Peotone, IL and Des Moines, IA. Click on the "Events" link near the top of this page to get info about petroliana specialized swap meets. This has been a tough year for swap meets with the virus restrictions, but a few are still planning to be open. Check with them before you go to be sure.

Welcome to Oldgas. The best advice is to do research BEFORE you spend your money! Lots of convincing looking reproductions out there. Good luck with your collecting!


Regards, Jim

I collect gas pump salt and pepper shakers
and the plastic coin banks made by AVSCO.
