Picked up this pair dated 1-39 this week. Been sitting in a guy's closet for over 30 years-he got them out of the attic of an old Texaco station he leased in the late 70's. They are 10 inchers.

Here are my BOTW's, 2 Texaco Banjo signs in awesome condition the one on the left is from 4-1936 the one on the right is from 10-1957 and as far as I can tell it was never used as there are no marks from the mounting ring and no chips on any porcelain even on the bolt holes. The 1936 has a small chip in the top center of the T but other than that only some marks from the ring.  Looks like some nice stuff everyone, good luck on the hunt. Bob

Got this BEAUTY at Fred's. It is so clean that I could not pass it up. I am still surprised that this can was still available on SAT. Thanks to Bob Porter! I figure, you folks in Montana/Wyoming can collect Gilmore stuff, I can collect HUSKY, right?

Picked up these items this week. 1. 4' x8' Mobilgas Just Ahead painted metal sign in original wood frame dated '59. 2. Standard Oil of Kentucky 2' by 3' Private Property sign. 3. King Motor Tune-Up center from the 1930's im guessing. I dont no much about this and im not a big car guy. I dont know if i will keep it but it was just too neat not to bring home.

I bought a couple of things this week but only want to share this unique Packard spark plug wire repair station thingy. The bracket on the side would have held a crimping tool. The drawer has some spark plug terminals and rubber boots in it. Don't bother sending me a P.M. Clinton, I already sold it on CL.  Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Cosdencop,
I am more than familiar with the west Texas winds, but that must have been a doozey to blow all of the pole signs down in your back yard. If it was a twister, they wouldn't all be facing the same direction!
Clinton, Great find. I can tell you are really honing your picking skills!

Hi, are you sure the Mobilgas sign is dated 59? The font suggests -39 (IMHO)
great sign, btw :-)

I think Claes is correct that the Mobil sign is older than 1959. The serif A in Mobilgas and the Friendly Service slogan was more commonly used in the 30's. I think that sign was on Ebay for a long time if I'm not mistaken.

Picked up this unique Salesmen sample/store display for Indian Automobile shocks...I guess when the motorcycle business was not doing so hot they tried making shocks and did not do well with them either.

WOW...some great scores this week! Love the Texaco Signs...all of them, was surprised Matt didn't score another pump at Fred's and love that Richfield sign as well as the King tune up bench.
Too many things to like in these threads...but thanks for sharing everyone. I took the week off and didn't buy anything more than a couple items off eBay. Can't wait to see what all y'all buy next week.
