Great stuff so far!
I had a good year as well and added a few things to the collection! Thanks to fellow oldgassers for Help with the Buy Economy, Hancock, and the Norwalk! The Norwalk is at the Neon shop and should be ready by the end of January. Happy New Year everyone and I hope it's a good one! Keep them coming!

I had a pretty good 2017! I added a few new sets, (a couple of singles), some upgrades and two new coin banks. Congratulations to all for your 2017 finds and best of luck to you for 2018!
Regards, Jim
I collect gas pump salt and pepper shakers
and the plastic coin banks made by AVSCO.

Bought a lot of great signs last year. However, most of my favorite buys ended up on this table. Took the glass off for the photo.

The globe holder is from a 53. I'm on the hunt for a 50 globe holder, most likely I'll be very happy with a recast.
Don't have the globe frame, propbably can't afford an original...LOL. Again I'll be happy with a repro.

2017 was a busy year. I went to the Missouri show, two in Peotone, Columbus and Iowa Gas. Bought a few things for the collection, prices were strong in my opinion. Planning on rolling out Thursday for Missouri again.

Wow, what great pieces everyone, 2017 was a very very good year!
I have had this pump sometime but more importantly finished it last year now I can enjoy it. By far my most favorite. Inside are also some the cans I was lucky to get.

That is an awesome Air Force sign! I've never seen it before. Looks like tin....is it dated anywhere? I'm guessing 50's/early 60's??
