Release May-99

Built in March of 1926 by American Car & Foundry in Milton, PA, this 39' single dome tanker was serviced March 24, 1961 in Houston, Texas by the Richmond Oil Company. Painted white and lettered in black, #11135 wears the 1955 red and blue Mobil shield. In 1933, the Flying Red Horse (Pegasus) was introduced as the new symbol for both Socony-Vacuum Oil and Mobilgas. When the two companies merged to become Socony Mobil Oil in 1955, this modernized logo was developed.
