I was in the right place at the right time many years ago & bought 2 boxes of UNION OIL CO. labels.
They range in size from 2oz to 55gal. barrel wraps. Some are stamped on the back NOTED and then a date. The ones with Ring Binder reinforcements were mounted to paper when I got them.
The pictures that are foggy are mounted behind glass.
These are the Earliest 2 I have.

This is U.O. 1st Company Logo.

Bought the Hill's Special at the Reno swap meet, 4 or 5 years ago, It was a must have when I saw it, still has the original shipping label on the other side. It would be interesting to know if the can that was originally in the box had the same label.

This is my only paper label item. This type of bottle was used in Sweden for different fluids, and this Mobil Shock Absorber Oil from Vacuum Oil Co is from around 1947.

Archer Oil seemed to have a "thing" for paper labels:

Paper label on the Mobiline Rocker. Mobil sued Sinclair over the Mobiline name and these were to cover it up.

Posted By: Notchcad Re: Paper Labels used for Oil Company Products - Fri Mar 30 2012 08:31 PM
That is an awesome can! I was worried about the one on eBay cause I was not well enough informed on its originality.
