Users of new Esso Extra are the best friends
of this improved gasoline.
They recommend it to you.
No other gasoline in its price range exceeds
new Esso Extra’s over-all quality. No other will
give your car better performance.
Octane rating reaches a new high. Mileage
is better —you get all the mileage your car can
deliver. And a chemical additive, perfected at
Humble Research Center, conditions your engine
so that performance improves mile after mile.
Esso Extra, at intermediate price, is the per-
