  1. A last second collection came up that wanted to be sold asap. Catalog uploaded last night, auction is in 7 days! Labor Day monday starting at 8pmEST. All 300 lots will sell in about 2.5h. Plenty of wall hangers from all types of subject matter. If you want a 10k dollar sign, this isn't the auction for you: https://www.liveauctioneers.com/catalog/341233_online-outdoor-antique-advertising-collection/

  2. One of the most diverse auctions Rockabilly has ever had. All of the collectibles from the Karlocks Musuem are being auctioned off. A timed auction will be added the day before of all of the smalls, it's a massive auction. Here are the 2 live auction days. Ranging form jukeboxes, neons, flat signs, video games, you name it, it's there.

  3. Richmond Auctions goes on the road with a remote auction at Bettendorf Americana in Iowa the first weekend in August. Robbie Wolfe is putting on a huge car show, sign show, vendor and auction event. So much going on over 3 days. Friday afternoon/night Richmond Auctions will be doing an auction on site for roughly 300 items. You can bid in person or online at: https://bid.richmondauctions.com/auctions/4-E09WBZ/bettendorf-americana-advertising-auction

    Nice garage display item but not an authentic Texaco item. Base is an unmarked "fantasy" item.

    This is correct. This sign was only made in a 42" size, not a lollipop. Base is fantasy as well. This was meant to be a copy of what they call the Texaco Black-T. If you compare it to the 42's, color is off, font is off, etc. Font is usually the first thing to look at when uncertain. Modern fonts are just different. It's hard to explain sometimes, but once you "see" it, you know it.
