ANSWERS:
I made a mistake on the Wayne display, I was a little tired when I posted this, I should have put Wayne 71 showcase.
The Tokheim 36B display was one sided display (were they all like that, I have seen one before besides in my literature?). I think Miles purchased it.
And your correct, $5000 for a set of Mobil bottles, we were all shaking our heads about that one. You also need to remember soneone bid $4975 to get this guy to spend the 5 grand.

The Mobil diamond bottles in this auction had some major flaws. Sometime in there life the filling "bills" were cut off and holes soldered shut so they could be filled with something other than the proper Mobil attachment. I've seen many like this over the years and have found them hard to sell......just an observation.
