I picked these up in Florida and was wondering if anybody new anything about the oil company and or area that sold this product. A friend told me he thought they might be part of Red X or Red Ace? He wasn't sure. Thank you guys in advance, Kris

There was a Hurricane Oil Co. in Louisiana, but, I don't think these are from there. I do like them, though as we can relate to hurricanes in our part of the country.

I am getting some requests on whether I would sell these. I would rather end up with a rare pump and if I have to put some cash in that's ok also. I do really like these though I can't image they are any more floating around. After talking to a friend that's almost 90, he remembers filling up at these stations in the 40's and 50's in Florida. They were the stations along what is now the Florida Turnpike and went from north of Orlando that he remembers down almost to Miami.
