If there were a online vote for the back bar display. I'll pick Yough. That sign is very hard to find along with Belmont and Silver Dime.

Scott, thanks for the pix.

Looks like you've made quite the haul. Great stuff and love the Narragansett can. Congrats!

My take. Four dollar cans and (as I told my wife) one was $1.50. Really looking forward to reading Jules Kish's beautiful book, which he was blowing out at a great price. And I bought a piece off Ken Ostrow that will be a birthday present a few months from now.

Quite the action shot with the cat. Funny thing is, your pix that are showing upside down or sideways, load right side up if I click on them to super size. Crazy technology stuff. :smile:

Thanks for the reminder on the book. I need to get one of those!!

Scott,

Jeff
Jeff, there were people Wondering where you were!

Scott,
I was planning on coming to B/G but work wanted me on a big shutdown project at a school. I was all in because it involved a lot of overtime including at least one Sunday. It was postponed until the schools spring holiday in April about 2 weeks ago leaving me no time to prepare for the show! I probably could have made it but when I talked to my wife she was a little upset at spending Valentines by herself!

Sometimes you just can’t win!
Going to Spring Thaw no matter what!!!

Some of my take.

New cans for me plus variations and some dramatic upgrades.

Upgrades and variations
Image

A couple signs. Tim, the Gunthers is from 1933 or 34. Already at framers!!!!
Image

Finally got a Heurich tray. Rough, but never seen one under $1200 before. Any suggestions on brightening it?
Image

Also found another Primo aluminum variation in a 50 cent box!
