In the 1960s the Pan Am sulfur Company (PASCO) had part ownership in Sinclair. And a sign like this was posted in the COTM before but this one is in a lot better condition so here it is again. Double sided porcelain with two different logos on it. Probably about the 1930s time frame?

My little Station/Museum. Gradually getting there. About through with the inside, then start loading up with all the stuff in storage.

I would like to keep this topic going as a one stop place to get info on this company. I have a few more pictures I can add. Sorry for any repeats. A couple pictures of mirrors Sinclair used. I think the metal item from the same business as the one mirror was used to hang up a broom or something.

Here is a can from the Cudahy Refining Company that matches the sign several post back. Half gallon, does anyone have a gallon? Cudahy had the Opaline name that Sinclair kept when they bought out Cudahy. Also a standing dinosaur five gallon bucket.

A couple more signs. The New Oil sign would have been used on the side on an A-Frame oil can rack. The tin tackers are probably from the 1920-1930 time frame and the "chalk board" type sign is probably foreign, 1960's.

This shovel has a plate on it about the ground breaking ceremony at the Sinclair research center in Tulsa Oklahoma. It has the mayors name down as James Maxwell if I recall. If you are a Sinclair collector named Maxwell this would be a must have item almost. Also some tin give away type ashtrays from Sinclair dealers.

Some more cans, similar product, different size containers. Also an Extra Duty can rack. The one picture is of a spin on oil filter for a car.

A few more cans. Most of the earlier pictures were big group shots. Sinclair had PD bug spray, so named because it did Police Duty protecting you from bugs. Some had different concentrations of DDT.
