Frank, I do not have any idea what you have, however I have a good friend at Windsor, Illinois, Greg Harris, who has some of the most unusual Shell items I have seen, all of which are genuine. His phone number is 217 459 2718, he may be able to help ID it, if it is a Shell piece. Norm Huff.

Frank, He's probably doing his own calulating on his computer ?? You could have JJ work on it a little bit and ship it in a smaller box... [This message has been edited by blackteetexacogold (edited 07-22-2008).]
