Description

Texaco Ad 1939Full color 9 3/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad that reveals to the reader “This the story of a great idea!”. It then tells the readers that “Millions of traveling motorists all want clean pleasant rest rooms with running water, soap and towels and a mirror. So we Texaco dealers have pledged you clean fully equipped Registered Rest Rooms at our stations…supervised by our “White Patrol” inspection cars. We invite you to stop at our stations where you can get that lively Fire-Chief gasoline and Circle Service and courtesy. We thank you…Texaco. Sounds like a great idea. There is a small item that says that Sky Chief sells for about half the price you paid in 1920 for the then regular gasoline, illustrating the continued success of the petroleum industry in providing the public with better products at lower prices”.
