Ive been pretty busy buying stuff I dont need... Lots of junk to see here..
I never thought Id get this Universal Monsters Ben Cooper Creature from the Black Lagoon mask for my collection as it is the rarest/most expensive one..It was in a buy it now lot on ebay cheap..listed as "Aquaman"..

HUGE 70s toy lot pick up off Craigslist; 6 Million Dollar man/woman/Maskatron,Pulsar,GI Joe..etc

Ice cream ? Bike bells ? and cake topper decorations from 50s/60s cheap from antique store

And the big one..I had the great fortune and dumb luck..(And lots of time on the computer )
Its here in my possession awaiting the new wheelset and seat to be installed this week.. Took a month to get but obviously, worth the wait
It had a cruddy weld put on the seatpost tube/BB junction at some point in its life, but for the price I paid plus shipping I cannot complain
Now I just need to rob my 401K or a bank and find a tank...

Was on vacation at the thousand islands NY with my family this week. Still Managed to score a couple giant signs! I’ve been looking for the ox cart steel billboard for almost a decade.. 4x8.. Only seen two before. Exxon double sided porcelain was a sweet “ take this one too for a extra hundred” kinda deal. Both of them were at a local bbq joint that has closed. Happy Sunday!

Second biggest purchase of my life- but a worthy conservation project for the next few years 1840s house that is virtually untouched- built like a colonial with oak post &beam and wide plank floors- located on the Delaware bay in NJ

A $10 mini bike that I hope someone can tell me what company made it. And 2 bikes for $1 not worthy of pics. And these 2 stingrays.

Nice mini bike. It appears to be a Bonanza.

I missed a week ( Sunday Show and Tell) well away at the lake ( Lake Winnipeg) in Gimli, Manitoba at the annual Icelandic Festival. A good time was had by all. I rode my 1953 Schwinn Black Phantom and scored some neat reprinted pictures of Winnipeg and some Bicycle shop photo's ( will post seperate/more pics). I got my " Hercules" fender bomb from Bicycle Recyclery and put it my '39 CCM Motorbike, got some ( Ebay) model and vintage Corvettes, a cool vintage Coconut beverage "snow" can from an antique dealer buddy. Also a neat '64 Caddy with a speedometer, originally bought for parts, but fell in love with how complete it is although ridden hard, put away wet, and had a cigarette butted out in the back seat!! I took it apart and got the speedo working again!! This Nosco plastic race car is eye candy ( Ebay) as well. Scoresville man!

Picked up a ‘67 Deluxe Typhoon in Coppertone, a set of S-7 wheels, the front fender and a box of parts (also had pedals, brackets and other stuff) in a little middleweight bundle.
Now I need the two little reflectors for the mudflap to match the other! Anybody have ‘em?
