Lots of oil and gas advertising from an Ohio auction. I have a list what it sold for. If you want to know what something sold for, in the auction, pm me. I was going to post a list, but that would take some time. Oh the Pegasus horse went for 3k!! Texaco Marine Lube 1900, Ford Oval 625, Pennzoil brown 42 curb sign 3k. Here are the auction pics. http://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/photop...=15829&kwd= Heres some of the stuff I bought.

Last week I was finally able to make a deal on a super straight Tokheim 36B, that I had been trying to buy for the last three years!
The story is that a fellow bought it at Iowa Gas, some 12 years ago and stashed it at his buddys so the wife wouldn't find out! LOL
Twelve years later, I was able to pry it away from him! Its one of the straightest and most rust free 36B's that I've ever had!
As long as I was there, I looked thru the other fellows stuff and bought these 2 really nice cast iron face plate assemblies that go to a Martin & Schwartz 60. They'll make really cool wall hangings!
On the way home, I stopped at another contacts house and was able to buy this really nice POLARINE Oil Can Rack! Made for a nice day with some quality buys!

Last Friday and Saturday I was selling at a local antique show here in town. Hardly anything to buy but I sure sold well. Anyway, on Sunday I ran into the dealer who was next to me at the show and he said he was going out on a call. He said there might be some signs, so I told him to let me know if there was anything I might be interested in. He did phone later and there went the profits from the show. In one hand and out the other. The AC cabinet is covered in a fair amount of paint splatters which I am slowly cleaning with a sharp razor blade. I have often wondered about the Prestone thermometers that go to minus 90F, if they were made for the Canadian market. With global warming I haven't seen that temperature in awhile, lol.

I know these are not as nice as the one Joe Yocom has for sale. But it shows how they have great potential.  Found in an old junk yard. They need some work, but everything is there. Water, air and light poles.
