If you don't do Facebook your missing out on a lot of stuff..and info. it's all knowledge... to me ps. you only have to be friends with whom ever you want to be. You can be as private as you want. It's much different than what you have heard rumors about.. AND I'm not knocking any venue where there's knowledge either. Their all good.

I don't think the guy selling the Red Indian oil rack is from Toronto, pretty sure he is in Alberta...same guy that has all the Red Indian stuff for sale in Alberta.

Facebook works for some of us. I decided to offer a barn fresh gas pump for sale and within 4 hours someone contacted me. Today they took a ferry from Vancouver island in Canada at a cost of over $150 and picked up the pump. Some serious buyers.

Those pictures match up very well to the collection of Graeme Browne. http://www.oldgasolinesigns.com/about-us.html

Those are in fact Graeme's listings. I was over to visit him last night and he's trying to move it in one lot versus splitting it up. I asked why's he wants to move it and he said look around? He has pumps in the middle of his garage and signs all over the place. I said build a shop and he laughed.
Surprised he still has it to be honest. Someone will step up soon and it'll be gone I suspect.

He told me he wanted $14K for the rack complete,, that would be a good enough reason he won't sell it.. I can't imagine someone will step up and buy the whole collection.. IMO.

I have long said Wes: "Price is what you pay. The value is in the quality you get back."
With dead mint cans selling for $500+ US and that rack having at several or more cans of that grade, I would think it'll sell for the money asked! I have not seen a nicer group of quart cans in a filled rack before, and I have seen a few of those racks in some fantastic collections. The sign is also the nicest one of those I have seen. You simply can't beat quality.

These are the ones I completed a few years back,, great condition on all cans except the gallons were without lids.

I see a least one image is from back in 1995 which is 20 years ago now Wes? Graeme mentioned that you sent a few emails expressing interest in both racks? If you could have got those below market price, what you would be asking for them today considering it's perhaps nicer than the one you had 20 years ago? I think his price of 11K US is spot on myself. IMO

Hope this image turns out as I'm not real good at the whole picture linking thing? Old and Senile I am.
