As not to compete with "Buys of the Week". I thought there would be a few gifts out there from those that love us and understand our love for this old stuff. Here's mine to kick it off.

Merry Christmas!!

A gift from my wife of 26 years.

That was very cool of your wife!! My wife is afraid to buy for my addiciton/collecting. She's always afraid she will end up buying me a repop or something. She does buy for my birthday, but I always pick it out so it's not the same.

Another good girl out there! Snap-on v.s. Petrolina....tough call.

I suppose I'll be looking for a 60'S Gulf tire for a display....add that to my previous "in-search for list".

My wife got me a signed copy of Wayne Henderson's new book (One Hundred Years of Gas Stations). I seen the book last month at Gas Pump Robs house , and told my wife I wanted that book for christmas. She was exicted that I didn't ask for another sign or pump again.
Anyone that hasn't seen that book ,needs to take a look at it .

After telling my wife about Tom dropping a pump on his leg she must have taken that as a hint. Either that or when she came out to the shop the other day and caught me wrestling with a MS70 by myself she got worried that I might end up under a pump like Tom, or worse. Whatever the reason, it got me this awesome dolly for Christmas.......

Does this qualify?

I bought it but my wife wrapped it and put it next to the Christmas tree so I would have something to open with the grandkids on Christmas day.

Santa (my son-in-law) got me this early tin sign to add to my "Indian Gasoline" collection!

Love the last two lines, on the sign!

Thanks again for the gift, Jeff! Your always so thoughtful!
