Only a couple months to go until Mason Dixon Gas in Frederick MD! This is always one of my favorite shows of the year, with some of the biggest names of the east coast, and offers a great buying opportunity for everyone. I'll be there with some of my extra 2 gallons and some signs.
Who else is going, and what is being brought?

I will be there as usual. I believe this will be my 10th year. I'm glad to know there are other people out there thinking like me. 8 weeks away.
see me at Mason Dixon Gas, Spring Carlisle M114-115, and Hershey C4E-35.

...this will be the 19th show - haven't missed one yet, and don't plan to...the hosts are the best...I'll be setting up with some signs & cans, hawking the Mason-Dixon t-shirts, and looking for nice Gulf pieces for my collection  so bring me something good! The show date is Saturday, March 14. This is the technical day for regular buyers, but a lot of buying goes on friday, dealer set up day, for vendors only. ...bold added by me, for emphasis...if you want to come on Friday, please support the show by buying a indoor/outdoor space, bringing some nice stuff, and setting up... I have to work that day. Seems like every gas & oil show or swap meet is scheduled for a weekend I have to work. ...8 weeks out, and you can't get a day off?
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

I'll be there looking for stuff to add to my collection. This is a nice show, mostly indoors and there is usually an auction going on the same day in one of the nearby buildings.

I will be sending out my Mason Dixon vendors registration tomorrow, and since they have been a couple weeks sent out, I hope everyone will be doing so soon. For past vendors, who get first shot at spaces, getting the current papers to Keith Elza as soon as possible is crucial, so new vendors may get the chance to participate with any remaining spaces.
Only a little over a month to go!!

Who what when and where is the auction? I'm forcing myself to clean up the place and have some stuff to consign.
I only live 30 minutes west of Frederick over the hill, and have never been to the show, but have been to the auto swap meet for many years.
Anyone coming have any old auto/truck jacks you want to unload ? I collect them babies and am looking to add to my growing collection.

The auction will be conducted by Parzow Auctions of Frederick, and will be held in building #12 on the fairgrounds, only a short walk way from the show location. It begins at 9am. Generally, there is an abundance of country store pieces in the sale, but this year, they are selling the collection of Dave Clemens, with a heavy focus on petroliana. You can fist their website for more photos, phone numbers, etc.

Dave Clemens was on American Pickers (the pickers robbed him blind on several pieces!) He is now selling his collection, and it was broken up into 2 separate sales, one in November, and the one now.

Hi Guys, thanks for all the great comments about the show! This years show is quickly approaching and is proving to be one of our best! We have had an overwhelming response from our regular vendors and many new vendors. We have received so many requests from new vendors we have decided to rent an additional building to house new vendors. The building we typically rent has an adjoining room that will house another 10-15 vendors. All regular vendors will be in their previous spots unless they have already contacted us.
We do have some spots available in the new building if anyone is interested in becoming a vendor. Please feel free to contact us if there are any questions.
Thanks, The Mason Dixon "Crew"

Thanks Shaun! Yes, the show is getting close, less than two weeks away.. This year’s show is defiantly going to be our largest ever! We have completely sold out our original building and continuing to fill up the new building. We already have over 60 vendors and more coming in daily.. Many thanks to the many, great vendors we have that continue to support our show, without them we wouldn't have been doing this for 19 years!!! Friday is for vendor set up ONLY, we do not allow early buyers in on Friday. Doors open to buyers on Saturday morning @ 7:00 am.
Feel free to contact us or post here if you have any questions about the show.
I look forward to seeing everyone there, safe travels, Keith

...thanks, Paul...Keith, Sr. had an old Autoline booklet with a car shining headlights on a billboard, and thought it would make for a nice shirt...the toughest part was finding a usable pic of a vintage car from that angle!
