Here's what the starting prize is: This is a NOS Baum's polish counter display.Dick Bennet has graciously offer the following as an additional prize to the winner.4 1qt lids w/ return postage.As most of you have seen db does amazing work relidding quart cans.

THIS IS WHAT I LIKE....A CONTEST THAT REALLY KICKS SOME SERIOUS MAP! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHO THE WINNER IS OF MAP POSTING INVENTORY. IS IT ABOUT POSTS OR NUMBER OF MAPS POSTED. FOR EXAMPLE IF I HAD 100 MAPS I COULD POST 4 MAPS EACH IN 25 POSTS, OR I COULD POST 50 MAPS EACH IN 2 POSTS....OF COURSE THE DETAILS IN THESE MAPS WOULD BE HORRIBLE! LOL! I THINK I JUST EXPLAINED IT TO MYSELF AND I'M GOOD TO GO AND BETTER SELF-INFORMED. OKAY I'LL SHUUUUUUUT-UP! ~DOC

Well, I guess I'll give this a try... I've gone through and scanned some of my favorite map images. Let's start with some Marathons. I like these because I'm a big fan of the porcelain 3-bay stations... Zooming in shows a beautifully detailed image... My single favorite map is the Diamond 760 compass rose... (sorry it would barely fit on the scanner bed...)

I gotta put in for my top five: Parco of Missouri 1925 Standard Oil of Georgia 1925 Standard Oil of Alabama General Petroleum/Parabase of Western U.S. Diamond of Iowa Vern [This message has been edited by gaspower (edited 12-31-2006).]
