presents to
the world’s
the motorists of Texas
finest automotive gasoline .
q/imwi
This new gasoline is designed for
the growing number of automobile engines
with very high compression ratios, and for
cars that tend to knock on “premium” gas
olines. In many cars, it is the only gasoline
that will give you knock-free performance.
It has the highest octane rating of any
automotive gasoline in town—the highest
by far.
But octane rating is only one perform
ance quality. Other improvements match
Golden Esso Extra’s increase in octane rat
ing : this new gasoline also sets new quality
standards for quick starting and fast warm
up, for protection against vapor-lock, for
minimizing engine deposits, for maximum
acceleration, for protection against gum
formation, for long mileage and maximum
power.
It is the finest gasoline Humble has ever
made—its performance rates it “premium
over premium.”
If yours is a car with a very high com
pression ratio—if your high compression
engine tends to knock on “premium” gas
oline—fill up with Golden Esso Extra at the
golden pump under the Humble sign. You’ll
save the extra cost through performance,
operating economy, and added gasoline
mileage.
Golden Esso Extra is
One of Three Great
Humble Gasolines
Golden Esso Extra is for cars
■with very high compression ratios.
But there are hundreds of thousands
of automobiles in Texas that give
perfect performance on Humble’s
famous Esso Extra gasoline, and
there are others that perform well on
regular grade Humble Motor Fuel.
Humble provides all three grades:
Golden Esso Extra—premium over
premium; Famous Esso Extra—pre
mium; Humble Motor Fuel—regular.
Thus: you pay only for the quality
your car requires.
Those whose cars require
Golden Esso Extra quality
will find it profitable to pay
more for this new gasoline.
But for many, Famous
Esso Extra is the best gas
oline they can use, No. 1 in
Texas, first in sales among
the “Premiums” because it’s
first in quality. This great
gasoline will continue to be
the leader in its field.
For others, Humble Mo
tor Fuel sets the pace for
performance and mileage
among the “Regulars.” It
is the only regular gasoline
in Texas that contains a
patented solvent oil to keep
your engine clean.
Use and pay only for the gasoline your car requires ...
You'll find it under the Humble sign.
