Richfields came out of a teardown two months ago. and the four different Shells seemed to pop up over the last year. They are still out there.

I have come to the conclusion that in this hobby unless your pockets are deep enough that you can't reach the bottom, the most precious commodity is luck!!!

I am in awe of those Shell lenses! I'm lucky enough to have three of them but the lower right one is new to me.

They were in an attic space that had been sealed off, as the building had been converted to office space at some point. Nobody there remembered it being a gas station.
