This assortment of vintage Mobil service station items includes a warning sign, a pair of ceramic mugs, an attendant side cap, and a pair of glass chemical bottles. The sign is a single-sided porcelain enamel on steel plate featuring the text FOR USE AS A MOTOR FUEL ONLY CONTAINS LEAD ANTIKNOCK COMPOUNDS in black lettering alongside a blue, red, and white Mobil shield logo. The pair of heavy, diner-style ceramic mugs are white glazed with the red winged Pegasus logo and Mobilgas branding. The fabric service station cap is a garrison-style side cap in dark blue with white piping, featuring a white circular patch with a red Pegasus and the words SUPER Mobiloil in gold-tone print. The two clear glass specialty chemical bottles contain an opaque white liquid and feature black screw-on caps. Their labels are heavily deteriorated but show red and blue text including POISON warnings and references to dichlorobenzene and radiator maintenance. These bottles contain original liquid chemical contents and may be subject to specific shipping regulations or hazardous material restrictions. Sign dimensions: approximately 4 inches by 5 inches.
