I try to get the best I can afford at the time. These are some of my best items so far. � The globes were duplicates from my brother or from Iowa gas. � The extra duty sign is almost perfect. I got it from a friend of mine. I got the lubester plates from my Uncle. � The 5 foot Dino sign is also from Iowa gas. � I got the vertical strip signs from different places, the Pennsylvania from my parents for Christmas (2004), the Opaline from an auction in KC and the Mobiline from an antique shop in Arkansas.

danceswithpumps Active Member Posts: 714 From: Nebraska Registered: Mar 2002	posted 12-28-2005 08:24 AM Thanks, Tom for the kind words. I sure don't regret buying it but it has been a challenge. I haven't given up on her yet. If it weren't for this site and the many GR8 people like you encouraging others like me, I probably would have. I'm sure enjoying this thread! Really GR8 stuff, guys. Thanks for posting. Let's see some more. Rod ------------------ IP: Logged
