Oil Change Sticker From 1967

[RalphG]

I did a bit of show and tell about the 1967 "Atlas" oil change sticker that has been on the door post of the 52 Merc all these years.

I watched your video interesting bit of history. I also had a tiger tail and those plastic Gulf gasoline horseshoes stuck to the side windows of my very first car a 1950 Ford 2 door sedan. The things you do when your a teenager.

I don't remember the Gulf horseshoes but Gulf was handing out some type of scratch lottery cards with various different car pictures on them and I saved a few of them. Have to include them in a future video maybe. Gulf also handed "Coins of the world" with each gas purchase here in Canada for a while. A collector card to display them too. I have one. There are probably others I've forgotten now.

Our family owned a Gulf station back in the day and I gave out hundreds of the USA and state stickers. You brought back lots of memories with your picture.
