Coffie Crave Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 THE STIX- you cant put a price tag on old paint, it sells alot on e-bay and u can sorta say thats what it chould go for ballpark wise, but its mostly cuzs ppl are willing to fight over what they need old paint to me has more feeling,art and history behind it everyone i wouldent waste time trying to prove points to Jack McCoy just look and lol and walk away... slyle- what book are you talking about?

Slyle CMC Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7132354577&rd=1 If you are into spray paint collecting this book is not really for you. It is mostly comprised of pre aerosol items. There is a pic of one or two spray cans, and a few items from red devil and I think rust-oleum. The lady that wrote it I might ad is a bitch. She has been selling most of the items in the book on ebay. If you ask me that is kinda shady, even when she basically promised them to a friend of mine. Its like she created a market with the book, then turned aroudn and sold them all. If you are looking for books wtih paint, roger gastman always puts cans in his books. Mass apeal and while you were sleeping have had articles dealing with paint. And dont forget saturday night fever, travolta worked in a hardware store and in the background they covered up a late 50's rust rack filled with scottis, and a red devil qt and pt rack. Thats all for now kiddies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoopit Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 its not really a secret anymore. There are alot more collectors out there than you would think. but its not the collectors you have to worry about (new collectors are were the money is, in either selling buying or trade) but a deticated edjamacated PAINT HUNTER.(like myself and other big wigs in this thread) These are the guys you worry about . theres is only so much vintage paint. If there is a book in the making it will definetly open up more than a few in each catagorie.

Slyle CMC Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 There is def. alot more older paint out there than you would think. With the amount of collectors out there all it takes is for one good score of a case or two of colors and everything gets screwed up. Given kids are picking up this hobby each and every day there is by far alot more paint out there than I think we can imagine. The fucked up thing of it all is that alot of it is getting thrown out and destroyed, used, and who knows what else....prime ex. bout a year or two ago this kid came upon probably one of the best paint finds I have ever heard of. For those that have been around awhile this is when the first mint green apeared. Now fucked up thing was this kid had no idea bout old paint, and what he had. He was actually using this paint, worst thing was some of the cans would not spray so they just decided to destroy them buy crushing them and throwing them against a wall. I know for a fact a few mint greens were used or destroyed, along with hot raspberry. For all I know icy grape and pineaple yellow could have been in that. This find he had was all 68-75 krylons along with some notch tops and name on cans. Now being un educated about this, some of the cans were able to be saved by going to the spot via a little investigating and get scooped up by someone who knew what to do with them. What he had not used, and had left was sold off on ebay, and I had the opportunity to purchase a few remaing cans at a pretty resonable price...all in all, if this was not kept a secret who knows what kind of cans could have been saved...there is still a few krylon cans out there that I have never seen or heard of. Pennant blue and peacock blue krylon , are prime examples, I know of only one of them out there, forget which one it is. Just recently some early examples of fool size krylons have poped up, something that I dont know of anyone seeing. There is also the elusive half size 68 krylons. White, Avo, Black, and some fluros are out there, but what about the hot pink, or burnt orange ones? Also early 60's farm and implement krylons with the funky farmer on the front, only seen ads with the cans, and never the cans themselves. Point is, I would rather more people know about this it gives us a better chance of finding some of these cans we may never see...and if who I think it is puts out a book, I aint buying it....but thats just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF1 Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Good looks. I thought it was some old 80's shit or something being as it has a paper label and I never seen it before. At least I can go ahead and use them without feeling bad now! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useurname Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I was wondering how old it is or if they still make them and what not, Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyle CMC Posted March 10, 2005 Author Share Posted March 10, 2005 Could not tell you much about that java brown. I think I have seen those cans at some discount stores, but not sure. Dont let a paper label and small top fool you. Alot of times it is just a cheaper way of packaging cans. Most of the times cans like that are made by larger companies like Seymour for smaller outfits. Look on the back and you might be able to decipher some infor.... Now that second cans is a nice one. In very good condition for its age. That is the second one I have seen in a few weeks. I believe gambles to have been an old department store. Now I know woolworth used to distribute paint called home cote, and that was made by red devil. I dont think there is anyconnection of the two, but most likely that too was made by a larger company. It is most likely at least late 50's or very early 60's....How do I know this? You can tell cause the front of the can is all virgin graphics. No warnings or anything, just pure product. I love those older cans, for that specific reason. Looks like it is a shorter can, not a full size one. Take a flic of the back of it if you can, so that whatever is written is legible, and I might be able to tell you more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guesagain Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 yeah i got 2 kans of it in perfect condition, jus fond this...thanks for the info tho... In 1925, the first Gamble-Skogmo store opened in St. Cloud, Minnesota. The second and third stores opened in Fargo and Grand Forks, North Dakota, respectively. Their business survived many financial crises, including the depression of the 1930s. Gamble was company president at Gamble-Skogmo from 1925-45 and was chairman of the board until his retirement in 1977. The company was acquired in 1980 by the California based Wickes Corporation. oh yeah and any info on rusto green aluminum 1030? is it hard to find i never really seen it or heard to much about it let me knoe thanks ......

HAL Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Last flick for now. Just a couple odd cans and tins i haven't put anywhere else. The Caldor paint is gray primer. My guess is late 70's/early 80's. The tins are Kyanize Lustrous Enamel Wysteria, Glidden Jap-A-Lac Ivory (both from the 40's at least), 1959 Rust-oleum Cascade Green, and 60's Derusto Orange.
