Found this old station towel dispenser and started stripping the paint. I was going to paint it white to go with my Sinclair stuff but I'm always careful when stripping something and check out what I found! It appears to be a view through a windshield with an attendant wearing a Standard hat. Below that it says "the handshake of Standard service." Does anyone have one of these or a picture of one because I would like to put it back to original. Thanks! [URL=http://imageshack.us] [/

Thanks fellas but that one doesn't look anything like what I've found so far. LUCKILY there was another one and I am removing the paint much slower on it. It is revealing some great detail!

When I was a Shell dealer years ago, the only thing I remember is, these were painted white, had no decals, and if we didn't bring them in at night they wouldn't be there in the morning.
