Following @pennsyfan - Trolley on street in front of stores, etc.   Oh and Bob, that Unique Lines cattle car is just great!  It is the very best of those cars for sure.

Thanks Don, I’m still looking for the Unique  Circus Elephant car. The Unique Circus differs from the Jewel T Circus. The latter has a roof. I also need the crane; then I’ll call it complete.
I like your “Dave’s “ Service Station. I have the same building but it’s Sinclair. I like Dave’s Quaker State more.

@pennsyfan- Hey Bob the Quaker State gas station was a stock Menard's buy and I have noticed that they recently changed the brand but maybe you can find one used.  Mine is almost as "out of the box" but the Ford pick up it came with was far too modern so I had to change that out for a 50's version.  I am familiar with the Unique brand but not the "Jewel T" was that a variance for Unique or a fully separate brand.

Best wishes

Thanks Don, Menards must have bought the mold. I’ll have to see if mine has a marking. Jewel Tea was a distributor of Unique Art products. When the circus cars were made,; there were Jewel T and Unique Lines. I suspect that the Jewel T was more popular because of the closed car.
