Description

Rev up your collection with a lot that celebrates the golden age of the American service station! The centerpiece of this haul is a charming miniature tweed suitcase that is literally overflowing with vintage Shell Gas Presidential Coins. Issued in 1968 as part of the "Mr. President’s Game," these aluminum tokens feature the likenesses of U.S. Presidents from Washington to Eisenhower. It’s an instant collection of "pocket history" that was once earned one gallon at a time.

To round out the "garage-mahal" vibe, this lot also includes a heavy-duty galvanized metal tool tote with a sturdy wire handle, a classic long-spout oiler with a gorgeous aged patina, and a vintage "The Tire Center Inc." ceramic ashtray featuring the iconic Fisk Tire Boy. You’ll even find a pair of die-cast metal cars, including a "Police" cruiser, ready to patrol your bookshelf. It’s a perfect slice of mid-century Americana for the gearhead or coin hunter in your life.

Perfect For: * Numismatists looking to complete their Shell game sets.

• Automobilia collectors who love authentic service station decor.
• History buffs who want a suitcase full of Commanders-in-Chief.
