The Supercar Registry - Gas Stations

Guys. I love this stuff (Petroliana/Memorabilia) I did not put this in the wanted section, because I am not desperately seeking this item.I am looking for, I should say, casually looking for, meaning if the price is right, one(1) of these Island lights, maybe even 2 if you come across one. say under $300, I'd appreciate a lead. So, please help me get my own station built in my back yard. Willing to trade goodies too. Thanks BB
Less than perfect OK, even rough 'cause my diorama I am making is like one of those calendars with an abandoned station look.

Anyway big place for the time.

Mike, That photo is of their flagship service center located in Portland Oregon. Pretty wicked photo and well circulated by those in the hobby. Love looking at that one.

As nice as those are, I am not necessarily wanting the top cluster of lights, but rather the porcelain shaded light mounted on a harp below those (eBay) lights. But thanks for the help. Always better when another set of eyes are looking!:youguysrock:

Don't know myself but Mike Slama would know. He is in Portland and is big on town history. Mike does gas globe lenses for the Petroliana Community and is one of the biggest globe manufacturers.
