Beautiful garage sir... I like your MOBILE and CONOCO signs, don't see those in the south too often.

Yes, they were the common fuels in New Mexico, and I found the Conoco sign in a small town where the original gas station and pole that held the sign is there! Probably from the 50's   I'm always looking for hidden treasures on my road trips.

Got a Malco sign in your collection? That was New Mexico. They had race history....Joe

I think it was KS Pitman who used Malco gas in his 1933 Willys...Joe

Very cool ! Thanks for the interesting info. I moved from Wisconsin to New Mexico in '90 , and  of course now I'm going to have to try and find that brand of sign for my collection.
