_American Oil Company_
HAS PLAYED A BIG PART IN MAKING HISTORY
★
Just as Boston is proud of the part it has played in the history of
America, so the American Oil Company is proud of its part in the history
of the gasoline and automotive industries.
Starting in 1910 with one horse-drawn tank wagon, the American Oil
Company has grown until it reaches from Maine to Florida and inland. The
American Oil Company developed Amoco-Gas, the first and original special
motor fuel, in 1915. Amoco-Gas revolutionized the gasoline and
automotive industries—made possible today’s high compression motor. The
first company-operated filling station in the East was an American Oil
Company station. American Oil Company introduced the first visible
gasoline pump—enabling motorists to see what they’re buying.
The American Oil Company’s growth has been built on one cardinal
principle: Honest Values, Honestly Described.
You can be sure you are getting the greatest possible value when you
drive in at the Amoco Sign of Greater Values. American’s Big Three of
Quality are: Amoco-Gas, which holds more official world’s records than
any other motor fuel; American Gas, the best buy at regular gas price;
Amoco Motor Oil, made from choice selected paraffine base crudes.
Drive in at the Sign of Greater Values—from Maine to Florida and inland.
