Welcome to oldgas! According to a book I have, Guide To Gasoline Logos by Wayne Henderson & Scott Benjamin, Hickock Oil operated Hi Speed stations throughout Ohio & Michigan.

Hi Speed was bought in 1952 by Pure Oil, and at one time, offered their own line of auto accessories, such as tires, batteries, polishes, radios, etc.
Good oil cans don't wait for people, people wait for them.
