1 I IBlbLifl 11111 31 fS I ISO s VIS Receives Enthusiastic Praise Iso=Vis, the revolutionary new motor oil, developed by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has become immediately and immensely popular. From all over the Middle West come letters commending the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), telling of the remarkable performance of this new motor oil. The following letter is typical. Auburn, Michigan, Dec. 21, 1926. Standard Oil Co., Saginaw Division, Saginaw, Mich. Gentlemen: I take great pleasure in recommending Iso = Vis Motor Oil to any user of motor oils. I know it gives better starting lubrication and extended lu> brication service. As a resale product I find that it moves faster than any motor oil product I have ever sold. I have placed my first repeat order of five barrels with your salesman Mr. Burt Trombly. (Signed) Dalvin Lamar Ford Agency Willis W. Rosckraus Iso=Vis has aroused enthusiasm because it solves the old dilution problem that has bothered motorist* for years. The oil of the past lost two-thirds of its body, or viscosity before the car had gone 200 miles. Iso=Vis maintains constant viscosity. Iso =Vis is of the right body to make starting easier. After a thousand miles it is still of the right body, lubricating efficiently and completely. That is why Iso=Vis reduces Repair bills—puts new pleasure and satisfaction in motoring—and creates enthusiastic customers! Try it today! Iso =Vis “F” for Fords.
