Thanks to all who have posted. There have been some very nice items so far, so if you haven't shared your Mobil, please do so! There are different variations of the Mobil restroom pledge shields to be found, including a black border west coast version and a couple blue border versions with slightly different wording. The later rectangle "locked" restroom sign does not show up nearly as often in my opinion. It's a heavy little sign for the size.

Some more nice items posted guys, let's keep them coming! I had mentioned previously that the pre-WW2 advertising in the General Petroleum territory was, in my opinion, some of the best ever produced by Socony-Vacuum. Below are a few examples I have of posters and advertising from this era. To start, a 1935 magazine advertisement. I think this is one attractive ad with great colors! An eye catching 1936 poster illustrating General's use of clouds and speed lines which is a trademark of General advertising.....This poster was found in the attic of a bulk plant in Oregon. And last, a General poster introducing the motoring public to the "new" Mobilgas Ethyl. This would date the poster to 1934. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Here is another neat poster from Argentina. Although foreign, I thought it was pretty cool so I added it to the collection a few years ago. This was from a series of posters, with this one advertising the dangers of "enemy #1, carbon", and that you could protect your car using Mobiloil.
