Hey JJ. Love the shaker posts. Any idea or speculation as to whether those Frontier shakers are from Frontier in CO/WY or from Frontier NY? chris

These Frontiers are from the Colorado/Wyoming Company. I have seen them from a station in Colorado and Nebraska.

Bob, there is no book dedicated to S&Ps. Several petro books picture 10 to 15 sets. There was a guide to S&Ps which Mark Cioni put together about 10 years ago. I helped him with many of the sets scanned for the guide. It is in b/w and provides scans of over 100 sets and info on rarity. I don't know if he still has them but there is some info provided on the oldgas site under "More resources for gas pump restoration". Bill Fortune

Thanks wfort39663. I suspected that they might be given the red color but the only Frontier CO I've seen have been the old logo ceramic ones. I think the NY ones would most likely be done in blue.

Bill, thank you for the information and also sharing your knowledge and your S&P shakers. The bug has bitten and now I will have to keep an eye out for another money burner. Need more than two eyes.lol

Glad you are enjoying them. What people don't realize is that 1 or 2 on a shelf is ok but 60 or 160 together all in one area looks killer. I will post mine all together when we are done to show how they are displayed. Starting the "G" now.

Some more Gulf. I have seen two of the white Gulf pumps and they were both peppers. It is possible that they came in a set with an orange pump. The Gulf Crest logo on this set is slightly larger than the one you normally see.

A rare single from Leonard. I have seen another set and the other pump is identical to this one. That is all the sets I know from "H,I,J,K and L" If anyone know of others let me know. A set of "N"s has surfaced. This rare set is from Tom's collection. [This message has been edited by wfort39663 (edited 04-12-2006).] [This message has been edited by wfort39663 (edited 05-04-2006).]
