Competition . . , leads to the world's best service The world's first service station was opened by Standard Oil Company of California in Seattle, Washington, in 1907, two years after cars came to the Pacific Coast. Pioneer motor ists, tired of wrestling 5-gallon cans to fill their tanks, flocked to this convenient gasoline sta tion. Other suppliers saw the point . . . service stations soon sprang up all over and the com petition to serve you better began. yjJEdh-l4.::Jr: - ' ' "- v ' .uinMi Iwwiiiw iibiwiwh wmi..w,,vv.. v - ''s 1 Look hOW it iS today! Here are just a few of the services you now find at Independent Chevron Stations and Standard Stations. We originated many of them in competing with hundreds of other companies for your business. This competition that has brought you more convenient motoring has grown with the West. Since 1907, we've seen the total number of Western gas stations grow from our lone Seattle pioneer to 26,000 to day. For us it has meant working harder to merit your business . . . investing $275 mil lion in 1954 alone to find new oil and im prove our refinery output . . . spending more than $35 million in the last 5 years for re search and technical services to bring better products to motorists, industry and farms. Since this is Oil Progress Week, we'd like to remind you that this competition which sparks oi progress brings you more miles-per-gallon of gas, lubricants that lengthen your car's life and the world's best service.
