    If you're the winning bidder

    on this item you'll write your check to Oil Heat Cares and send it to me. Oil Heat Cares is a not-for-profit charity.

    A good friend in England sent this to me when he retired. It's sentimental, but I'd rather see it make some money for those in need. This rare, antique plaque is solid bronze and would look terrific on your office wall, or on the front of your truck.

    Can I get an opening bid?

    Thanks for caring about others.

    Sold to the gentleman in the engineer's cap!

    Thanks, Brad. Send your check, payable to Oil Heat Cares to the address at that bottom of your screen and let me know where to send this gorgeous antique.

    Thanks for helping us help others.

    Awesome, Dan!

    If you want to save mailing costs, maybe you can bring it to the Stoughton Dead Men Steam Night School? Your call. Check will be in the mail tomorrow AM.

    Awesome. Fantastic. Happy to help.

    on the taking of a fine piece of history, however after covering your back lately it would only seem fitting that you not Ed should have gotten Dans backside;-)

    No disrespect to Ed he also deserves congratulations.

    A pat on the back to both of you.

    Bruce- Thanks!

    But I just won the plaque; not the right to paste it on Dan's backside.

    But I do feel I owe you thanks for keeping me on-keel even when just having fun with Shop Vacs and Janet Reno

    :)

    OK, don't ask. Easier that way.

    Best part is, Oil Heat Cares.
