The Pierce sign breaks the mold. They changed signs when they moved main office and operations from St. Louis to New York,neither looks like this.
I've also never found any motor oil cans with the gold bond seal.
There was a Pierce Oil in CA.-makes me wonder.
I can't help but like it is it single sided or double. Just when you think you have seen it all.

The Pierce sign is double sided porcelain. Marked Balto enamel. Was found in Texas. I've never seen another.

My pick up`s & deliveries over the last 10 days. Some of you will be familiar with some of these items.  Gargoyle Grease crate. I have never seen 1 of these in Australia before. It appeared on our local buy & sell page. (like Craig’s list) I was 2nd person in line. The first person messed the guy about with pick up times. So he called me & I jumped straight onto it. My lucky day & I only paid $25 for it.  STP tin.  Golden Fleece Tin.

I purchased these five last night from a man who said his family once operated a Mobil service station.

Went to an auction at a small airport in Connecticut the other week and picked up a few cans.

From what I think I know about the Sunoco font on old signage, this should be an old one.
Very exciting find for me.
Research still to be done.
