Description: Established in 1913 by Chicago investment banker H.M. Byllesby, Deep Rock Oil Company was a petroleum company best known for its network of service stations throughout the Midwest. Deep Rock pumped and refined its own crude in Oklahoma, producing gasoline, motor oil, and other lubricants that were sold exclusively in its branded service stations. In 1955, Kerr-McGee acquired Deep Rock, primarily to expand its service station network. Kerr-McGee continued to operate Deep Rock gas stations for several years, but eventually rebranded most of them to Kerr-McGee.
Description: Based in the town of Norphlet in Union County, Arkansas, Macmillan Oil Company began producing their Ring Free line of motor oils in 1923. The company was highly successful in promoting their products through sponsorships of motorsports ranging from flat track motorcycle racing and powerboats, to air racing and grand prix events, leveraging them to make their 'race proven' claims. Ring Free products continued to be popular throughout the '60s and '70s, but in as more high-tech formulas from new companies arrived in the '80s, Macmillan Oil Company's fortunes began to wane, and by the end of the decade, they had ceased operations.
Description: “Put a tiger in your tank” was a slogan created in 1959 by Emery Smith, a young Chicago copywriter who had been given the task to produce a newspaper ad to boost sales of Esso Extra gasoline. The tiger wasn’t Smith’s invention, as he first appeared as a mascot for Esso in Norway at the turn of the century. The end of WWII and the resumption of petrol advertising is when the tiger made his US debut. The message was that Esso fuel was so powerful that it was the equivalent of having a roaring beast powering engines. From glass globe pump heads and gas cap tiger tails, to stuffed animals and bumper stickers, the campaign was a hit, both in the U.S. and abroad.
