Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 13 1/4″ ad that was for the Gulf Oil Company. This ad starts off with the headline that says that “Gulf cares” under a photo that is showing a man and a woman standing by the back of their car going over a map as the man from Gulf is busy checking their oil. The ad claims that “You get the finest service where you get the finest products – at that clean, friendly Gulf station. Stop for Gulfpride Select, the motor oil that works as clean as it looks. It won’t break down, even under the most severe driving conditions”. Next to these words, it has a quart of this Gulfpride Select oil, a clear container with some of the oil in it and the oil stick from someone’s car. At the bottom of the ad there is a Gulf Service Station with quite a few cars being filled with gasoline.
