Caps. 
Soon as you get back out to that farm to pick up those vintage bikes you told about months ago we can do a deal on almost any oil company you like.
Attached picture is just a small sample of what I have my garage collection. Happy to make deal on pre 1950s bikes and parts............. Shell stuff is no problem. I have from early stickman items to drag free, up to shell X100 years. Embossed bottles, tins, signs. So young fella best back out to that farm hey. ;) ;D

I'd say quite a bit.
A mate of mine here restores them. He's a genius at metal work, so he can make some good money from them.
He bought one from the U.S. for about $6k. It was rusty as hell but had the 10 gallon glass on top all intact which was apparently a good thing.
He made up new panels, got new cotton hoses etc and reckons it's now worth about $10k to $12k.  :o
