Fresh from SoDak

So, I collect memorabilia.

And I got involved in an online auction a few weeks ago.

Been always wantin' one.

It showed up on my doorstep this afternoon.......



It's 4' x 4' on the sides. 5' 8" tall as pictured.

Patinaed by Mother Nature. She was less than kind.

Anyone recall the brand?

Now I just gotta find wall space.

In the garage.......

Nice, I wished I had kept the stop sign with the glass button reflectors on it.


But have too much junk now.

Snice.

Skelly Oil Company was a medium-sized oil company founded in 1919 by William Grove (Bill) Skelly, Chesley Coleman Herndon and Frederick A. Pielsticker in Tulsa, Oklahoma. J. Paul Getty acquired control of the company during the 1930s.

You'll have to stop by the house and see some of my junk.

Dinero has really cool stuff but it can be risky to look at his stuff too closely. The butter churn, for example, now sits in my son's house. I resisted the spinning wheel but still think of it wistfully.

A stop may be in order.

Say early May?

It's gone.

That could work out, you know?

Skelly Oil. Remember seeing those stations when we made a "family trip" to California and back in 1964.

This one's way nicer, but it planted the seed.
