Bob,
I agree with most of the stuff you said, but it is not only Old Gas that is changing, it is the complete hobby.

I attended the show at Columbia, MO this past weekend and you wouldn't believe how many barn hanger signs were there. This and many other things that we used to kick out of the way to get to the good stuff.

Almost every sign I saw being carried out the door was plastic.

Is all the good old original stuff gone or is it the price that has made stuff from the 1980s "neat items?"

A little tightening of the rules would help, but what we cannot change is attitute.
