    Description

    Here's one of the strangest items I have ever listed. It's from 1956. Shell Gas
    stations in this region had a "decorate you station for Christmas" Contest. This is
    the FIRST Place award and Pictures of winners. A Unique Item for sure! You'll
    never find anything even close to it! You watch...Someday some film maker with a
    little vision will make a film about this contest. Probably directed by Stephen
    Spielberg, David Lynch or the Cohn Brothers. It would, no doubt, star Tom Hanks
    as the wining station
    owner! Stranger things have happened!
    I Love to listen to offers. I am ALL Ears!
    ...... I have NO idea what it might be worth,
    there's nothing to compare it to.
    DID You Know that...When you "watch" a sellers auctions, you are doing
    yourself
    a LOT of Good! After a "Watch" or two eBay will give the seller an
    chance to Make the "Watcher" a "Buyer!" That's right the Seller can "Make an
    Offer" to the "Watcher" to be a "Buyer!" Also, the "Watcher" can make a counter
    offer. That can go back and fourth. BOTH Buyer and Seller Wins!
    So, MAKE AN OFFER! Or at least WATCH ME!
    CONDITION:
    It shows age/use/wear. The Award cloth bottom needs attention. It's a wonder that
    the award and pictures didn't loose each other over the past 65 years!
    I don't do Home pickups. EVERYTHING I sell is Shipped...
    Cross Town or Cross Country!
    USA SHIPPING ONLY....NO EXCEPTIONS!
    The Lucky New Owner Pays .45 for USPS
    shipping with tracking.
    We have been on Ebay for 22 years and we plan on being
    here another 22 years, God willing!
    We work very hard to treat our customers as
    we would like to be treated and
    our feedback certainly shows it. Good luck on the bidding.
    We are certain that you'll Love It!
