Heres a globe that I've wanted for a long time but the opportunity was never there. Finally found one on Ebay about 3 weeks ago and made a deal with the owner to purchase it! This one has recessed areas where the lettering is. Does this mean its a "cast lens"? I've always thought these were paint fired on a smooth piece of milkglass?

Awesome oil cans and globe!!!!!! I can't find any good signs or oil cans but I find a few good pumps every now and then. I bought this Erie pump yesterday. It has been inside of a barn for the last 52 years and on the same farm before that. This pump is perfect, no dents or rust.

I went to my hometown last wednesday because I remembered repairing a barn door for a lady years ago and she had a pump in her barn! So I went back to ask if she still had it??? Yep she still had it and she remembered me! So I offered her 350 and she sold it to me...:) Tokheim 300 I think?  Then I went over to my buddy's house to show it off when he offered to trade me pumps even steven! So I did!!! Wayne 70  3 Original gargoyle signs
