HEY, LEROY! GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN!
TO SOMEWHAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION ABOUT THE GETTY BRAND.
GETTY HAS PRETTY MUCH HAD TIDINGS OF SOME SORT WITH THE TIDEWATER OIL CO AND SKELLY OIL CO. JUST NOT A SEPARATE BRAND ON IT'S OWN UNTIL 1969-1970 (MAYBE EARLIER). THIS IS WHEN ALL STATIONS BRANDED FLYING "A" BECAME GETTY STATIONS. STRANGELY ENOUGH AROUND 1984 TEXACO (NOW GONE FOR THE MOST PART) BOUGHT THE GETTY NAME BUT STATIONS ARE STILL
EVERYWHERE HERE ON LONG ISLAND AS WELL AS THE MARKETING AREA FROM VIRGINIA TO MAINE. HOPE THIS HELPS!
