Found an unusual oil can display rack and any help identifying would be appreciated. It has a small round door in the top for what reason I don't know. Any help identifying and it's possible value will be appreciated. I want it but don't know what it might be worth.

The shape at the top of the rack has to be Conoco. We see the signs more often than the racks.

door in the middle should have a little canister that sits below it... made to hold the oil can spout

i had one last year... it was in good original condition, with no missing parts, and both porcelain signs were present and close to mint. I sold it for $850 at a show

The porcelain signs will bring about $250 each, if in good condition, so that leaves about $350 for the metal stand, if you use Bryce's sale price.

Thanks for the replies, I am trying to buy this rack but have no idea of value as I have never seen one before. I might offer $200 as a starting point. Thanks again
