The 400° F. End Point gives instant and complete vapor- ization to the last drop — many motorists may not know what 400° F. End Point means but every motorist can tell the difference in his car between the new Good Gulf Gas- oline and the ordinary gasoline with 437° F. End Point. Ordinary motor gasoline may be loaded with Anti- Knock Chemicals, but the heavy non-burning ends remains to retard engine performance . .. This combination of high anti-knock properties and volatility (the 400° F. End Point) makes the new Good Gulf Gasoline the equal of many premium gasolines and far superior to all non-premium fuels. There is but one better gas—GULF NO-NOX MOTOR FUEL AVIATION GRADE (374° F. End Point.) Remember there is no extra cost for this new Good Gulf Gasoline. TRY IT TODAY i. GULF REFINING COMPANY
