(1) 12 Page Spark Plugs Size Chart 1957
(3) Punch Out Promotional Speed Boats
This is aChampion Spark Plug Size Chart dated 1957. I found a hand full in a box that hadnever seen light of day so the condition is absolutely Perfect.
It measures 11 3/8\" 14 3/4\"
and hangs from a smallwire tab at the top like a calendar. From a practical stand point, its12 pages long and covers: American and European Vehicles, Trucks, Buses, Marine Engines both Inboard and Outboard, Farm and Garden Tractors, Farm Machinery, Mowers, Pumps, Saws, European and American Motorcycles
and even LOCOMOTIVES!
It Makes aGREAT SIGN all on its own as well so just buy it for decoration. Its a hell of a lot better than those cheap Chinese reproduction metal signs that are clogging up the Internet.
American Made!
TheseBoats were a cool littlePromotional Giveaway for the kids that would go into the Auto Parts Stores with the old manin the late 1960\'s or Very Early 1970\'s. It is a Small Punch OutPAPER SPEED BOATwith the Champion Logo on it. It is on normal 8 1/2\" X 11\" thick stock and the perforations make it come apart Very Easily.
I\'ve seen a Rocket Ship as well, which helps date it. So, this must have been part of a series. I\'ve also seen at least one other that was an airplane from Phillips 66.
They were sitting in the back of a file cabinet in a manila envelope, and are in perfect condition. They are very displayable whether you frame it,assemble it or both. You won\'t be disappointed. I found a few of these that\'s why I\'m offering them so reasonable.

R.J Loock History and Our Pick
These items were sourced from R.J. LOOCK which was a Baltimore Institution when it came to Automobiles. They operated at the same location : 339-345 N Gay st from 1913 until the neighborhood declined and the last heir retired in 2001. They were not your ordinary cookie cutter automotive parts store like you see today. They were parts distributors as well as jobbers for their own LIGHTNIN Parts line as well as for most of the top brands of the day. They sold: Auto supplies, Replacement parts, Garage equipment, Shop equipment, Tires, Tubes, Oil, Grease, Accessories and they even had a Complete Machine Shop.
This may not sound different from an auto zone except Loock was responsible for placing products such as Champion Spark Plugs, Quaker State and Gates belts (to name a VERY few products) into EVERY private and municipal garage that used them in a 5 state area. long before the internet and trade shows, these guys were road warriors that sold stuff the hard way on a massive scale. As the 22 floors of samples that they left behind will attest... thats right... I said 22 FLOORS of Samples! R.J.Loock tried to sell ANY quality product that they thought had a chance . Of course, as jobbers they were responsible for placing advertising in the businesses that they catered to as well.
We were lucky enough to purchase salvage rights to this little treasure trove years ago, and this is the last of our treasures! There was no working elevator and the buildings were 4 floors tall with a basement ................................. and they NEVER threw ANYTHING of value AWAY! It took us 2 months full time to sort through and we are now coming to the end of what we have found. If you like high quality out of the box advertising as well as MINT automotive related collectibles, please bookmark us and keep checking back, we keep finding bits and pieces in our storage warehouse. I think you will be in for a treat.
AND
If you are a beginning collector, theres stuff for you too. They had a habit of nailing signs around to cover holes and such so we will be offering those as well, most are gone now, but not all...please check out our store by CLICKING HERE

About Us
MdArchitectural Rescue is a different type of recycling company. We have operated in Baltimore and surrounding areas since 1996. After starting out rescuing fireplace mantles and cast iron door locks from construction dumpsters, we have opened our eyes to may types of waste that are often over looked and fall through the cracks. Our focus is and always will be vintage items of the highest quality. But with our eyes now open we put a lot of effort in bringing you high end collectibles from every industry available and at a very reasonable price. All our items are salvaged and are for the most part American Made. One week we could be in an old School, Brewery, Factory, and the following weekat a Shipyard or Power plant, you just never know. Also, one day we may be removing Vintage lighting, the next day Signs and Vintage blueprints and the following day cleaning out a machine shop or high end parts room. We literally have NO idea what we have coming around corner, so make sure you add us to your favorites and check back often.
We also run two additional stores. If you are looking for unique and interesting glass pieces,
