: I found an old lubester yesterday. I know nothing about it, but I would like to restore it to resemble a standard oil or polorine lubester. I would really like to see some pictures and find out if and where I could purchase some decals. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Bryan,

There are some nice color images of several lubesters up for auction in Nov. 2000 at the link below. One lubester, pictured here, is made into a display case by cutting away most of a side panel and adding glass shelves. This is a very cool way to display cans, bottles and other small oil and gas collectibles.

Decals are available from many vendors. Most of the repro gas pump globe designs are also available on a decal. Some original equipment NOS decals are still out there at swap meets for some brands. Check with the vendors listed on this site. Click on Pump Parts or More Resources on our oldgas.com main page. Or check with:

They have the decals that are available.
