Originally from Bolivar, Tennessee, I have collected advertising signs and related items for over 50 years. It was only recently that I became attracted to cardboard streetcar advertising signs. Initially, the superb graphics caught my attention and then I became fascinated with the history associated with the creation and use of these cards as well as with the companies, products, and services offered.  The restoration of these cards along with the discovery that Barron Collier, a Memphis native born in 1873, became the Father of Streetcar Advertising in America only made my interest in this hobby more enjoyable. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need additional information.

Note:  Here is some other stuff that I have been working on:

And I just self-published a 90 page book on "Putting Your Customers' Needs First - A Fifty-Year Journey" that details my career from my college days at UT at Knoxville through my retirement in 2013.  Here is a link to the online book:  https://cld.bz/Aqnifuu

My latest book is "It's Not About Me" ... you can read it at   https://cld.bz/bDDGeZo  

It covers my life from birth until age 77 and introduces you to many of the people I have encountered in my lifetime!
