More cans



License plate topper, beware of fakes on ebay



Here is a picture of the one sign that I posted earlier that had the blank spot at the top that never had porcelain on it. I had a sign painter put dads name on it



And how most of them are finished



These two do not show up very often, single sided tin





The small size. Around 12 inches. Again, beware of fakes. They also made 16, 24 and 30 inch ones of these

There are actually at least three different Pennant globes, one the flag touches the pole and there are two different ones where the flag does not touch. One has the flag further away from the pole in the center part

Somebody was asking about the style of spears that were used on Sinclair sign poles. The one in the picture should be the correct one







Sinclair had a lot of car care products

Sinclair was bought out by ARCO in a lot of areas east of the Mississippi in around 1969 or so. A delivery truck driver dropped off some plastic signs at dads bulk plant once that were sort of like the below sign without the heating oil part. They were blue, said Sinclair on them where the below sign has ARCO and had the red design on the right as shown below. The truck driver then picked them up the next trip and took them back. Does anyone have a picture of a sign like I am talking about?

A pair of curb signs. The Opaline sing can be found with 4 mounting holes for the ring type base as shown with the HC sign or two mounting holes only at the base for the trough type base. I think the 2 hole version is the later of the two



A can cart...



Needs two of these and a buch of cans to complete it



I hung the truck section on the wall..



Put on a pair of signs...



And use it to store 5 gallon buckets

A nice straight Wayne 70 I picked up at a show. Already under primer. I had it painted red and white and put a Sinclair globe on it
