Huge improvement iii Gulf Gasoline

th>> any

To measure the quality of a gasoline, no hocus-pocus is needed. There is a scientific test that shows the comparative anti-knock value of any motor fuel. The shorter figure above represents the former “mark” in that test of GOOD GULF, one of the best regular priced gasolines in America. But . . . hold your hat! The taller figure shows you the precise improvement in the NEW GOOD GULF, now stepped-up tremendously. What superb performance this power-packed fuel will deliver in your modern, high-compression engine!

FREE!

Above, at left, is the pre-improvement ♦“mark” of GULF NO-NOX—for years one of America’s best premium gasolines. But hang on to that hat again as you look at the other figure! It shows how much GULF NO-NOX has been lifted over its old high. And when you consider that the old NO-NOX was knockproof under all normal driving conditions—that was no easy improvement to make! • • • NO REGULAR GASOLINE—NOT ONE —CAN COMPARE WITH GULF NONOX!
