SUPERSTITIONS
OF YESTERYEAR?
•
Superstitions don't last long,especially
when it costs money to believe in them.
For example, the majority of western motor
ists have long since stopped paying tribute to
the superstition that there is something mys
teriously “better” about “eastern” motor oils
merely because they cost more and are made
in the East.
Zerolene is First Choice of Western Motorists
Zerolene lubricates more motor cars in the
Pacific Coast states—high and low priced cars
alike—than any other oil m ade. Six out of the
seven trophies in the 1924 Yosemite Economy
Run were won by Zerolene-lubricated cars.
The “anti-western” oil bogie simply doesn’t
hold up. Zerolene increases gasoline mileage,
reduces upkeep costs and lengthens engine life,
in high priced cars and motor trucks alike.
Why pay tribute to a superstition? In sist on
Zerolene even if it does cost less.
Get the Facts!
A series of independent and impartial reports
showing the experience of large users with
Zerolene has been collected in our booklet,
"Why Pay Tribute to a Superstition?’.’ Ask
any Standard Oil Company representative or
Zerolene dealer for a copy.
