Curless- are your Westinghouse machines the Select-O-Matics? I wouldn't mind one of the shorter ones showing up around here.
aspbear- that sign is a 16" button which has the wire frame and a small plastic button on the back side. I think it must have been part of a larger piece at one time. It has the remnants of an "Electric Sign" sticker on the back. Here is a pic of the other side. I have moved it to another room since the first pic was taken.

I got a thing for these mini oil can banks about three years ago. They were handed out at gas stations in the 50's-60's if you bought their gas. I have about 70 now and am always looking for more. Some can be expensive!

Cormy, very nice collection. My uncle has been a petrolina collector for over 30 years, its all his fault that I love that stuff!
On the coolers , they are not as you asked. I have one that is just a cooler and one that is a recirculatory.

But my real problem is Snap On......I love sockets! I am addicted to them, if it's new, deep, shallow, in between, swivel, chrome, black, 1/4,3/8, or 1/2 inch I NEED IT! I need to have a sale, never wrote it all down before...hope the wife doesn't read this! I miss the Snap On man... My wife used to call him My other wife since I was giving Snap On more money than my wife was getting every week

I still have my coin and baseball card collection that had a kid. Right now I stick mainly with Classic coin-op games, beer/pop signs, Atari 2600 games (as you can see in my avatar ), records (I have over 4,000 45's and also a closet that is just albums and 12" singles - gotta love the old K-Tel ones), and old pop bottles.

I forgot about K-Tel, may have to go searching the parents basement this weekend.
I don't collect as much as I aquire. Someday I'll have the room to have everything displayed, in use. Well that's my goal I've slowly got into jukebox restoring, of course, pop machines, lots of original and repopped signs, thermometers, and weird stuff that just struck as me cool.

For those of you who have Seeburg Consolette wallboxes, the K-Tel mini-album pictures on the back are the perfect size for the album pictures in the wallbox (see pic below that I stole from jukeboxparts.com). About 10 years ago I went in to a used record store and told the owner I was looking for some K-Tel record covers and what I was using them for. He went in the back and gave me a few that that he didn't put out since the records were all scratched up but the covers were still in decent shape.
