Blakely Collectibles   

I want to thank everyone who has visited my website the past few months.  It is great to find so many people remembering station locations and making inquiries into various items available from Blakely. 

I would like to extend everyone a personal invitation to attend the upcoming P.A.B.C.C. Phoenix Antique Show and Sale on October 8th & 9th, 2010 at the North Phoenix Baptist Church.  I will be set up at the show this year to sell off some of my extra Blakely items that I have accumlated over the past 27 years.  I don't know for sure but, some of the other dealers may also have some Blakely available.  For more show information, please see my INFO page.

Blakely Service Station Collectibles bring back memories for many Arizonan’s.

If you lived or grew up in Arizona during the 1950’s and 60’s most of you will remember the chain of Blakely Gas Stations located throughout Arizona.

Their stations were state of the art for the time with some stations operating as many as 15 pumps.  They were also the first self serve station in the State.

If you don’t recall the stations you may remember the Arizona Cactus glassware and dinnerware that were given away to promote their stations.

These giveaway's consisted of frosted glass and pitcher sets, clear painted glass sets, crystal etched glasses, pottery and fine china dinnerware. 

The Blakely gas station giveaway’s have become one of the top Arizona collectible today. 

You may have inherited a set or just stumbled across them in a yard sale, thrift store or antique shop and found them irresistible.  Whatever attracted you to them you are not alone.

Many collector’s are searching high and low for items to complete sets or for those unusual and hard to find pieces. 

Hopefully, through this website we can all learn about the history of these stations as well as some of the collectible items in existence and perhaps items that may be available through other collectors.

Please be patient with us as we work to develop and grow this website.
