I see how DB got addicted to these things. I will start looking for KYSO ad glasses.

As a rule, Standard of Kentucky used Gilbarco pumps and rarely used ad glasses. Going to be tough to find Kyso glasses to fit a Tokheim top.

So KYSO didn't allow Mom & Pop operators to sell their gasoline?

Kyso almost always supplied the pumps. There are limited exceptions, but they were perhaps the most closely controlled company of the era.

Crown Extra was Standard Oil of Kentucky's premium grade from 1939/40 thru 1962/63. Prior to that the premium product was called Crown Ethyl. Product lineup by 1940 was Kyso (motor), Crown (regular), and Crown Extra (premium).
