Description
Black and white 7 1/4″ x 10 1/2″ ad for their Super Gasoline which they felt was the “Closest Thing to Racing Gasoline”. The ad has a picture of a car staged at the lights at a drag strip and the headline lets you know that this ad will tell you “How to spot your winner before he hits the quarter”. The first few paragraphs are very instructive and full of tips but it begins to get simple when it gets to the Gas classes. Here it indicates that the main giveaway is to pay attention to who is running with the “red Firebird emblem on the car”. It explains that “Pure Firebird Racing Gasolines have set more racing records than any other brand” and encourages you to fill up “at the big, blue Pure Oil sign” on your way home from the strip.
