In loving memory of Garnett Eastcott 1939 - 2018
By: Wayne Eastcott
My dad, Garnet Eastcott, got his first fulltime job at a Texaco Service Station in Edmonton, AB around 1958. Remember service stations? That place where you could get your tank filled, oil checked and have your windshield cleaned all because you pulled in and said "Hi.". If you were a regular customer, the nozzle would be in your tank before you could roll down your window. They could also replace wipers, brakes or tires at the very same place on the spot with a face-to-face appointment. I miss those simple days; it is still so vivid in my memory I remember how it smelled.
Shortly after my dad started his first job he married a beautiful woman, who he had two sons with; one of which was me, Wayne. Sadly, his job at the service station did not pay enough to support his growing family, so he packed us up and headed south to Red Deer to work for an oil and gas business. Within a year he asked the owner of the company if he could buy the business from him. The owner said yes and gave him a year to pay for it. Dad being the hard worker that he was paid that personal business loan off in six months. He became quite successful and as they say, "The rest is history".
Both my dad and I loved old cars, so it was natural that we started to collect them and display them. This hobby was funded by a company we started together agreeing that all the profits would go toward fun and family only. It quickly became clear that the constant maintenance and space required by this "hobby" was becoming more work than fun. Our car displays were staged with old signs and a few dozen quarts cans that coincided with the era the cars were from. This in itself started a collection of its own. We then decided to sell the cars we had collected, as they took up so much space and required a lot of maintenance. We decided to continue our Petrolina collection because we thought it would require less space, however, we were wrong. Most collectors are constantly dealing with space and storage issues and we were no exception. This dance with available space went on for 40 years.
My dad and I traveled a lot on the road in the 80's and 90's, and this is how we expanded our collection in the beginning. Then came swap meets and live auctions, this is where we met many other collectors and began building connections in the Petrolina world. Finally, the internet came along and with it we welcomed Ebay and virtual auctions. My dad thought he had died and gone to heaven with how easy it became. When a Sackrider/Shackelton brochure for an upcoming Petroliana auction came in the mail, my dad was like a kid at Christmas going through a catalogue. "What do I want, what do I need?" Immediately he would be physically checking our collection with the brochure in one hand and pen in the other. When the items became available on their websites, he would print the catalogue and peruse every single lot, whether we had it or not. Always with the consideration of an upgrade to our collection.
As technology changed and improved, we would have our museum director/caretaker and best friend, Don Hnidy, hit the internet in search of current prices on items we were interested in. Come sale day dad would use his office, which is connected to the museum, with Don and an IT person. Don was there because he knew the museum like the back of his hand and the IT person was there to fix any computer glitches that came about during the sale. These sale days with lunch, beers, a couple friends, and a few good buys was my dad's idea of a perfect Saturday. He absolutely loved it!
These are the memories I have and will hold onto dearly. The time has come to sell our 40-year collection. Dad passed a few years back; Don's legs are giving out and my interest left when my dad did. It was the special thing we did together and now its time to find other things to enjoy. And if we're being honest, I could use the space!
I hope this auction brings to you all the same joy and excitement that it did to my dad over the years.
