Synopsis
In their effort to market automobile-related goods and services, gasoline companies generated millions of advertising and packaging items. Today these often colorful objects are much sought after as collectibles and this book is a tribute to the gasoline stations. Included are gasoline pump globes, advertising signs and thermometers, uniforms, caps, children's toys and puzzles, giveaways, oil containers, dispensers and pumps. All are illustrated in over 500 full color photographs, with helpful descriptions and a guide to current values. This is a book to be cherished all whose memories whirl with gas station moments.
