Cities Service...........worked in a Cities Service station when I was a high school kid in the late 50s. When I got out of the service dad bought the local Cities Service bulk plant route etc, and I became the truck driver up until they became Citgo about 1969.When I started collecting about 15 years ago I went after Cities Service stuff and now have a mock station crammed full of it and lots of other companies too.No favorite pump but have a 2 Bennett 150s on my station island, a Milwaukee 810B clockface and now putting together a Wayne 60showcase that will be Cities Service Premium. I think the Milwaukee is the coolest.

Without a doubt, GILMORE! I remember getting Check the Oil by Scott Anderson when it first came out in 1986, it was my first glimpse into Gas and Oil collecting. I've dreamt about owning a Blu-Green globe ever since! I've tried my hand at collecting different Canadian brands or different products, I've had my fill of Red Indian, White Rose, Quart cans, Canadian globes, and have sold everything I ever collected, except my cherished clockface pumps. I am still trying to convince my wife we need to invest in some good Gilmore items via a second on our house, unfortunately she's not on board quite yet.........   Roar with Pogomore..........

Marathon , because I have been moving that juice since 1968. Starting with double bottom wiggle wagons (Tankers). Started collecting only the free stuff at first.

Wow, There are a lot of favorites out there. I guess I'm the only one who likes polly gas the best.

My favorite is Skelly, but I'm thinking that I should be leaning more towards Zephyr. There is more than one Zephyr. I mean the one that was run by J.D. Streett of St. Louis. Their logo looked like this:
