    Thaught you might enjoy seeing my recent purchases. The Firestone can is from the late 30s, all 3 cans came from a local monthly antique/garage sale. The lubester came from a local farm/collector. The Martin Schwartz(I think) clock face pump came from a local guy who's father in law used it in his home garage right up to 1981. He had a tank in the gound and would buy bulk gas because it was cheaper that way back in those days. Unfortuneatly about 2 1/2 feet have been cut off the bottom of this pump and the base is missing. I didnt pay much so Im thrilled to get it.

      I almost wish I didn't read this... I was excited at first when I seen the clockface gas pump then I started reading... the rest is history. The person who did that that should be on America's Most Wanted...lol.
