Texaco Sky Chief Gasoline Pump Plate Sign

Description

1947 Single-sided porcelain (SSP). The "Sky Chief" name was chosen to evoke the high-performance standards and prestige associated with the aviation industry. The name signified that this premium gasoline was not just a regular fuel with additives; it was a high-octane product developed to meet the needs of modern engines, much like aviation fuel. The sign would have been used until 1959 when Texaco transitioned from the "Reg. T.M." marking to the modern Circle R (®) symbol for its trademarks. Authenticated by The Authentication Company (TAC #501626). All items are guaranteed authentic by Miller & Miller Auctions. All purchases are eligible for free delivery to the Check the Oil Show on June 26, 2026. 18" x 12".
