Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

They are a set of three the tiger sign is missing. All that I have seen are heavy cardboard with a "foil like" covering.
Wanted ! Cans from smaller Oklahoma oil companies.

Late 50's DP had a circus theme to their ads. Still believe you will find they are foil covered paper
