Special thanks to the promotors and everyone who helped put on the Iowa Gas Show. Powerlube...you did a great job on posting pictures and keeping us informed on a daily basis. I plan on attending next years show for the first time. I am looking forward to meeting all of the Oldgas members that I haven't met before. Thanks for the tips of the show. I'll try to remember that next year ($$$) Let's see how many first timers we get for next years show. Iowa Gas is definately the premier gas and oil show in the country. Special thanks again. Larry

I'm not a globe collector, but, I sure would like to have one of those Phillips 66 shield globes...What kind of $$$$ are those bringing in todays market?

Kurt

I believe the 66 shields were $1100

Thanks guys for posting all the photos.
Does anyone know the asking prices on the Richfield Just Ahead, Richfield Ethyl, Beacon Penn, and Pierce charge card signs?

I have always said....if you make only one show a year, this is the one to make. 960 miles one way for me that I dread, but it is all worth while when I get there.....see ya next year in da shade.

cpizza: thanks for the info.

Sorry to hear about your loss.

It looks and sounds like it was a good show, thanks for the pictures. I couldn't make it this year but I did get to drool on the porcelain my brother picked up.

Paddy,
2200 miles going for me & 1700 miles for the return trip with all the goodies.

Only 750 miles each way for me but it felt like 2500 with two sick babies and no sleep for three days. Still wouldn't trade having my family along for anything.

My first time to IG but it won't be my last. Brought a couple of buddies with me and we all had a great time, 10 hours and 600 miles each way. Met quite a few oldgasers but not all, we'll get them next year.
