When you need gasoline, pull up within hose-length of the well-known red pump marked
"Atlantic." For that is the sign of the Atlantic. Power House, ;and a good sign it is.
Throw out your clutch, slip into neutral and apply the brake. Tell the man to grind
out a tankful of pure, powerful Atlantic the motor-fuel that banished all toll-gates on
the road to Engine Efficiency.
When the cap is screwed on and the change jingles in your jeans, you're all set for a
spin. The call of the open road can be heard and answered in fine fashion. Every lane "
is a king's highway to the motorist whose car is Atlantic-propelled.
Speed? The law is the limit. Power? You couldn't use more. Make no mistake,
there's just one motor-fuel that answers to the name "Atlantic." Be certain that you ask
1 right out loud for Atlantic Gasoline. Atta boy I
