Was talking to my cousins husband few years back and asked if he had any signs or anything left from when his family owned a gas company for many years but they all retired from it including him. He started naming off stuff that's been in storage in his basement for years. Finally said "You just need to come look at what I got". Okay, this went on for a couple years with me just not making it to his place. About a 2 hr drive to his place.
Jump to July 30 of this year, my 50th birthday, my Beautiful Wife gave me a surprise party with about 80 friends and relatives in attendance including my cousin and her husband. I didn't get to talk to them much but my Pop's did and so he and my older brother made plans to visit them to look at his basement. Got a phone call from them wanting to know if I wanted to buy this or buy that. Well we ended up buying a few things that they ran out of cash to get more. So we are making plans to go load up more. Hope you all like the globe. We bought 3 with different logos in boxes like this. He still has just the faces in boxes that we have to get. Will be posting pics in different sections as I go thru stuff. Keep being Kool Kats, Rodhot
Great! You must be excited about what other treasures await!
Happy belated birthday, same date as mine. Nice globe.
Thanks everybody. Yeah, got to get back there to get more. Still has unopened cases of metal oil cans. Glass globe faces, small rectangle glass pump plates all still in boxes, and big sign still attached to original post and I don't know what else. Got to save up $$$ for next rip.
