Not real common Mobil lighted poles by Life-Like. I bought this pack knowing I would not use them on the layout. I just liked them...

A Model Power paper kit roadside sign. I was trying to date those prices to a
specific year, and it seems to figure out to be earlier than 1960, which doesn't
seem right. Very cool signs. What vintage?

Signs are late 60s or early 70s Chops. May try to find time to research this later... Sure wish they would have dated packages back then...

| I worked in a Standard [Oil] Station in 1965/66 and those prices are maybe a wee bit lower, but I know our gas was less than $.40 a gallon . . . and if you happened in Oklahoma City, it was less than $.30.

| Looked in my 1975 Life-Like catalog and found the same package as seen in the picture. Also, the Mobil signs are also advertised that year. I'd like to find a 71-72 catalog to see what packaging etc. is in it..
