Petroliana die-cast trucks, hobnail milk glass & pastel art pottery...
Visit Shop 14, where petroliana die-cast trucks fill two shelves of a dark wood bookcase. Exxon and Texaco tanker rigs sit nose to tail in chrome, white, black, and yellow. One trailer is lettered Rely on the Tiger, another Star of the American Road, and a Havoline tractor pulls a tank printed with runners. Above them a Ferrari Exxon World Sports Car Championship car hauler parks beside a Texaco number 6 open-wheel racer on a black plinth. A boxed 1910 Mack Texaco tanker and two Shell delivery trucks round out the oil company lineup. A tan Craftsman toolbox, a red Jelly Belly gumball machine, and a green glass bottle sit on the shelves below.
Beyond the petroliana die-cast trucks, hobnail milk glass fills a china cabinet with ruffled vases, an openwork lattice-edge compote, and scalloped serving platters. Opaque jade-green footed cups and a green ruffled bowl share the upper shelf with pink gold-rimmed plates and a pair of ribbed cream urns. A narrow curio holds a cobalt Paul Masson decanter, a blue and white ginger jar, crackle glass vases with silk anemones, and footed silverplate bowls. Hard-sided luggage in tan leather, navy, and brown stacks above the cabinet line under table lamps in brass and white ceramic.
Additional finds include a white picket-fence shelf of matte-glaze pottery, with pink and ivory ewers in water lily and magnolia relief. A teal basketweave teapot, teal cornucopia vases, and a chintz-pattern floral cat figurine sit on the middle shelf. Two cobalt flower frogs and green crackle glass candlesticks hold the shelf below. Old Country Brand sugar, flour, and coffee canisters and a Certified Farm Fresh dairy sign carry the country kitchen side. Carnival glass ruffled dishes, an amber fluted vase, a ruby diamond-point candy dish, and a coral metal TV tray printed with rooster weathervanes also turn up. A carved wood elephant head on a green marble base, a four-blade antique electric fan, and a leather-cased travel thermos sit in the open bookcase. Scale runs from thumb-size ceramic dachshund and calf figurines up to floor-standing teal demijohn bottles. Browse the vintage toys and Lionel trains at Shop 514 and the country and farmhouse decor in Shop 331 for related finds.

Your Next Well-Traveled Treasure is Waiting
Corner set for a country kitchen: a Farm Fresh dairy sign over black floral wallpaper, turquoise pottery and rose teacups on a picket-fence shelf, carnival glass on a pie crust edge table, and a folk-painted bread box lettered Blackbird's Pie Pantry. 
A weathered cubby shelf mixes a dachshund figurine, a calf in a painted saddle blanket, a briar pipe on its stand, and a leather-cased travel thermos, with a four-blade electric fan and a carved elephant head on green marble below. 
Oil company die-cast lined up nose to tail: Exxon and Texaco tankers lettered Rely on the Tiger and Star of the American Road, a Ferrari Exxon race hauler, a boxed 1910 Mack Texaco tanker, and a Texaco number 6 open-wheel racer. 
Behind the tulip-stenciled door sit a ribbed green mixing bowl, a blue and white cow creamer, a ceramic cookstove teapot with gilt trim, and nesting bowls in burnt orange, brown, and aqua. 
Milk glass fills these shelves: a hobnail ruffled vase, lattice-edge compotes, scalloped oval platters, and a pitcher and creamer, with a green pressed glass bowl and gold-rimmed pink plates alongside. 
Cobalt and clear glass share this cabinet, including a Paul Masson figural decanter, a blue and white ginger jar, crackle glass vases holding silk anemones, a spotted cow creamer, and crimped crystal bowls. 
Hard-sided vintage luggage stacks above the cabinet line in tan leather with a monogram plate, navy with brass corners, and brown with brass hardware, under a brass column lamp, a tasseled ginger jar lamp, and a brass basketweave lamp. 
Turquoise pottery takes the middle shelf with a basketweave teapot, a hobnail ruffled vase, and cornucopia vases, while pink and cream ewers, rose-pattern teacups, and a gilt mantel clock line the top and a blue and green art glass bowl sits below. 
A Queen Anne side table anchors this corner with a brass column lamp, two cloth-bound books, and an amber glass bowl of gilt ornaments on a wrought iron stand, with teal demijohn bottles set on the rug below. 
Coral art pottery urns with applied white blossoms top this curio, over a dark grape-relief jardiniere, a row of emerald paneled tumblers, and a cream teapot painted with pink roses. 
Old Country Brand canisters for sugar, flour, and coffee line one shelf, joined by a marigold carnival glass vase, a ruby diamond-point candy dish, a blue and white transferware vase of silk wisteria, and a Delft-tiled cheese board. 
A coral metal TV tray printed with a rooster weathervane, coffee grinder, spinning wheel, and steam locomotive stands beside a framed winter landscape print, a floral upholstered footstool, a gilt cherub holding a bowl, and a Di Camillo Bakery focaccia tin.
