I got one metal can that is high on the value chain one of a kind actually...
Hurts wheel can signed by Bill Campbell-Linda Vaughn-Perky Patty Campbell co-founder of Hurst Perky Patty original Hurst Golden SHifter (is pictured when the winner of the 1965 GTO contest car was given away. Linda Vaughn who needs no intro All three tie into the time span the Hurst wheel was in production. I know of no other Hurst wheel can that has those 3 signatures. denniskirban@yahoo.com On a similar note I have a small collection of the transistor radios that look like batteries and soda machines etc.... The key to any collection is to start early in life.....seek out the prime example.....make it something you enjoy..... denniskirban@yahoo.com |

You may want to do a little research - I have a new in box GE pocket transistor radio from around 1970; I did some checking online and this particular model is worth around $65.

I saw the Standard Oil can. Pretty cool one. Anything with Standard Oil is very collectible and from what I understand, the most collectible.
. There's a big market for anything petroliana (spell?). With that stuff, the bigger it is the more expensive it is. |
