    1. Almost 40 years. Esso became Exxon in 1973. This picture was taken in 2010, but the building and sign are still there.

    1. Don, I had an uncle who had a Gulf station in the 50s. When we traveled with him, he had some kind of dealer's id that meant that he could buy gas at any Gulf station for the wholesale price, which I thought was pretty neat, but of course gas was only 25 cents a gallon back then.
