of Senator Pate here started the
ball rolling after a hurried con

for the man who runs
liis car on Esso Extra!
When a man buys "premium" grade gasoline, it's
a safe bet he does so from a desire to realize the
most he can from his investment in his car. But it
isn't easy for the ordinary person to make a really
expert selection of his brand of gasoline!
Your engine can tell one from another in several
important ways. But for you it's a little harder!
You can tell which knocks and which doesn't.
You can tell which seems to give a good feeling
of power. But you never actually see your gasoline
at work, and many of the differences only show
in your, engine over a period of time.
So we're happy to tell those loyal friends who
make it a regular habit to drop in on our Esso
Dealers, and to pin their faith to the Esso Extra
pump, that they couldn't be more right if they
had all the petroleum knowledge in the world!
Regardless of hopeful opinions you may hear to
the contrary... we've got , brass-tacks proof that
today's Esso Extra meets the highest standard of
all-round, year-round performance quality.
And here's just how we know this . . .
Esso Extra meets today's highest standard
of year-round gasoline performance!

First, we take eight performance qualities which -automotive
engineers agree are important and
capable of measurement in a gasoline:
1. Sheer Power; 2. High Anti-Knock; 3. Long
Mileage; 4. Clean Engine Operation; 5. Quick
Starting; 6. Fast Warm-Up; 7. Hot Weather Anti-Vapor-Lock;
8. Cool Weather Anti-Stalling.
Then, we carefully test Esso Extra for these quali
ties against all gasolines that compete with it. And
the pay-off is that, time and again in these tests,
Esso Extra meets the highest standard of overall,
year-round performance quality to be found!
Add to this the fact that Esso Extra is the largest
selling premium gasoline in the area served by
Esso Dealers . . . and this should be cheering news .
to Esso Extra fans . . . and cause for sober thought
to others!
So... thanks for your business, and thanks for
your attention, and have a "Happy Motoring"
summer, with the knowledge that you just can
not find a better grade of gasoline year-round
than Esso Extra for the modern horsepower in
your faithful engine!
