My dad asked me to come by and put up his extensive automobilia collection on Ebay. I figured since I'm taking all these pictures anyway, there might be some people out there who would like to see the collection before he (foolishly IMO) gets rid of it.
He's spent over 30 years collecting this stuff, and it's a pretty impressive collection of automotive vintage signs and such from mostly the PA area. I have the full collection photos and individual shots of some of the items with brief descriptions on Flickr if anyone is interested in closer shots.
I hope this isn't against the guidelines, but there is no links for sale of anything anywhere on this or the flickr site, enjoy:

you say you are going to sell on e-bay? under what name ? would love to be able to bid on some ....
Sorry, I don't want the posting removed, so I'm not able to say in order to keep within site guidelines.
Once again, we have a changing of the guard. Now thanks to your Dad, other collections will grow, and so it goes... Sure glad you gave us a look. Send some more pics if you get a chance!
Oh, I forgot to mention, if you do go to the Flickr site, and there are less than 700 pics, it's cause I'm still uploading.
Very nice collection, I sure do like those license plate toppers.
OK< all uploaded, enjoy!
Wonderful collection. I agree with ttomtucker, the license plate toppers really got my attention.
Tell dad he has a wonderful collection!
It's really a shame you don't want to continue on.......................I'm sure dad would make you a deal ! :-)
I got my start through my dad, and hope to amass close to what your dad has done. Very nice collection. Mike
So is the collection gone?
