GRESHAM GARAGE Southard & Southard N ight Phone 25x5 Phone 2391 Q U A L IT Y DOMINATES Quality is the genius of production; and the dominant characteristic of Red Crown gasoline is quality. One cannot experience the results of quality unless quality is in the product. “Red Crown” is an all-refinery gaso line; a product of quality—a perfect stream of power—that makes it pos sible for you to enjoy the maximum power and the maximum speed your engine was designed to develop. Look for Standard Oil Service Stations and for the Red Crown sign at garages, service stations, and other dealers. There you will be able to get good service with Red Crown gasoline.
