A couple years back, I bought a puzzle from Ryan Underthun with a gas pump scene on it and we made it into a traveling puzzle and it was passed around for several people to put together and enjoy! I have kind of lost track of it and would like to see it back on the road.
Anyone out there still have it?? Seems I remember Lee Crowder being one of the last ones? Where did it go from there?
Lets find it and get it moving again!!
I still have it Kevin, I posted several times to pass it on but no replies.
It's boxed and ready to go if there are any takers.
I can have it in the mail first thing in the AM.
I have to say that was a lot of fun putting together.
Wahoo! We found it and we need someone that enjoys simple things like jigsaw puzzles, to request a turn!
There is absolutely "NO COST" to enjoy this item but the postage required to send it to the next participant! The box has been signed by those that have participated so far and you can add your name to the list.
This puzzle is a picture of an "actual pump' that was still out there in the wild a couple years back! What a great piece of history in jigsaw puzzle form!
To be next in line, simply state your request here and pm your address to Lee and he will send it to you. When finished, simply post on Old Gas that its ready to move on and send it to the next interested party!
No restrictions and no time limits, so step up and enjoy!
Take your time & send it my way you finish Rick.
Rick--Just PM your mailing info to LC 336 and he will send it out to you. When you are done with it (however long it takes), just contact Cold Pizza for his mailing info and send it on! Be sure to include your name somewhere on the box as one of the members that participated!
Thanks guys--I hope everyone enjoys it as much as the Warden and I did!
Take your time & send it my way you finish Rick.
Will Do, its on its way to me now
I'll try it after cold pizza his pm box is full
Hey Rick,
Dropped off at USPS this morning.
Two day delivery.
Thanks
Lee
For those who have much more patience than I...
And feel the need to work on a "Gas and Oil" and/or "Auto" related puzzle; While perhaps waiting for the "Traveling Puzzle" to arrive at your home?...
Or after putting together the "Traveling Puzzle" you didn't get enough frustration in your lives?....

The Warden was working on a puzzle while I was at the Peotone show and it got me to thinking about the "Old Gas Traveling Puzzle"! Colder times are a coming, and we need to get this thing back in circulation!
Anyone know where it is and who wants it next?
I have it and have posted a few times trying to get rid of it, No takers yet.
OK--Its time to check on this puzzle and see where its at and who wants it next?
This thing has been clear around the country and put together, then signed by an awful lot of Old Gas members! If you would like to be next, just state your desires here and we'll get it located and on the way to you.
Its a great piece and the Warden and I had a lot of fun putting it together when we first bought it!
I have it and have posted a few times trying to get rid of it, No takers yet.
Same as above, its all packaged and waiting for an address.
I would love to attempt this with my kids who love the hobby.

Where is the puzzle and where is it going?

Anyone know where the puzzle ended up? Seems this was the last person?

Glad to see the interest in the traveling puzzle again! I will check to see if Scott still has it--Richard, have you ever gotten your turn at it yet?
If you have not ever taken the time to experience this puzzle--believe me, its worth the effort. There is rally a sense of accomplishment when that last piece slides into place!
Scott is sending it to me, and Les has sent me his address and will get it to him after I'm done. Richard

Dave when your done, Joanne and I would love to add Wisconsin on there!
Thank you, Les. Pm sent.

Got the puzzle. Thanks Les, that was quick.
Will try to get it done during the next week or two. Will let you know Mike when it's on it's way to you.
Nice to see it's still making the rounds !
I would be up for doing a wonderful puzzle and bring it back to good old cold and snowy North Dakota. That's after Mike and Joanne have a try at it.
Finally, found some time to do the puzzle with my 5 year old daughter. Which was a lot of fun and Aysha really enjoys doing puzzles now. We bought her a few puzzles including a 300 piece puzzle which she completed. She has also downloaded a few puzzle apps onto her I-pad. This turned out to be a real good, quality family activity for Aysha and I.
Mike, the puzzle was mailed to you yesterday.
Got the Puzzle today. Even found another for Bob Richards to purchase and work on while he's dealing with some medical treatments.
So let's keep Bob in our prayers guys to get better soon!
Jason I will PM you when we are done to get your address!
Joanne and I finally got it done, tough one with all the colors, LOL
Now it's on it's way to the next victim, Jason Kirschenheiter (Jason K.)
Mike, just received the puzzle and will try and get it done shortly. Whoever is interested in completing next pleased let me know and I'll send it your way.
Just finished the puzzle. Who's next?
This is great that its still making the rounds after all this time. Jason--be sure to add your name to the box somewhere before it goes out again!
CMON--WHO IS NEXT?
If no one else wants the pleasure of putting together this Iconic gas & oil picture puzzle, I am going to have Jason send it back to me for storage. Its been traveling for a bunch of years already. C'mon---any puzzlers out there? Lets keep this thing going!
I was looking thru old PM's last night and discovered that the traveling puzzle was still stuck in limbo! Now is the time to speak up if you would like a shot at enjoying this piece of iconic Gas & Oil entertainment! This is a terrific little puzzle to spend some time on, and everyone that has attempted it, has thoroughly enjoyed the time spent. If you would like it sent to you, please respond to this thread. There is no cost, other than mailing it on to the next Old Gasser to enjoy! Who is next????
I'll take a turn at the traveling gas pump puzzle. I'm sending my address to Jason K in a PM message.
Great!--If anyone wants it after Jim, please get in line and Jim will forward the puzzle to you!
Hello Old Gas land! What is the status on the traveling puzzle? Does Jim Potts have it or did it move along farther than that?
Yes, I have it. Thanks for the reminder. Have to get 'er done.
Who is interested in doing it next?
Finally got the Oldgas Traveling Puzzle all put together. Are you up for the challenge? I'm ready to send it on to the next puzzle solver.
Post here and PM message me your mailing address.

Not sure if Jim Potts still has the Old Gas Traveling puzzle or not, but its getting to be that time of year again, when we seem to have some spare time on our hands during the evenings!
This puzzle is a lot of fun to put together and really gives a sense of accomplishment when its finished!
Besides, the picture itself is great to look at when its finally put together!
Who has it and who wants it next?
Lets send this thing around the US again!

Yes, I still have it. Ready to ship it out to the next petroliana enthusiast who wants to put the puzzle together. One of our newer members joining in the last couple years should say the word and be next.
It's fun!
