I BELIEVE THAT HAS BEEN PHOTOSHOPPED / EDITED AND ONCE SAID "MOBILGAS SPECIAL." I KNOW THAT MOBIL SHIELD HAS BEEN AS WELL...IT HAS FLYING "A" THERE. WAS PROBABLY DONE TO BE GENERIC W/O HAVING TO GET A LICENSING AGREEMENT FOR PUBLISHING.

Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

Makes complete since now! lol.....i didn't even catch the flying a logo on a Mobil shield at 1st glance ! It's kinda like John Steinbeck's "GRAPE'S OF WRATH" movie ,all the MOBIL advertising is blocked out , however if you notice the COSDEN advertising they left alone in the movie,i think the die-cut police man can be seen in a couple of scenes.

That also looks like a Prestone thermometer in the background, the prestone part on the top looks to be photoshopped out as well......
