No problem Mike. Sometimes when I first get up in the morning and the brain is not quite up yet, I grab a coffee and just run through some picture archives. Whenever I can find them.
I'm sure a lot of these have been seen by many before, but I like the old pics, so I post some for those who have not seen them.
Yah, Fred, I thought the same thing when I saw that.
Not sure if this ones been posted before. It looks familiar. I just love the color and the Credit sign.

Not the greatest pic, I just loved the Marfax sign with the scroll bracket and star on top. Never seen that before. And the plain jane Texaco seemed interesting.
Anyone have a Shell Aviation Service sign? Gotta be a rare one!

Looking at old pictures at work of some of the early tractor models the company produced... and noticed a 'little' something in the background!

Yes, I realize that Nicole, it's just there has been many a conversation about the authenticity of different versions of this sign, and here is an actual picture of one. Although unfortunately, this picture does not have the detail needed to help make any kind of case for the signs.

Those Wayne pump photos from Knoxville, Tenessee are great! But, to me, the pumps look small; could they be scaled down versions for the salesroom? Wouldn't that be fun to find!

They just look small, compared to the building size/scale. The 60 would fit in the doorway (likely 7')...
