Has anyone seen or know anything about this display ? I believe it use to be in Standard stations displayed so you can get some kind of hand out set. It is all most 9 ft tall and 30 inches wide on (thick cardboard paper stock ?) . It say's in bottom middle(1941 Standard Oil Company of California) Left bottom (LITHO in USA) Right bottom (M-353). Any help or value ?? Thanks Dave

Just a guess....but it looks like they gave out copies of prints that people could frame or hangup. I know Union 76 came out with reproductions of Charlie Russell (western theme and Montana Artist) prints. They were fairly nice. There were 5 or six in the series. I am sure other oil compnaies did the same type of promotions. nice item.

Alex is right. SoCal offered pictures of senic venues of America as giveaways. It was called "Senicland, USA". You can see one of the pictures in the hands of the girl there.

It is a "specialty item", so you the owner have to set the value.
