Description

This is an image of a vintage red crown gasoline sign.

Red Crown Gasoline has a rich history that dates back to the early 20th century. Here's a brief overview of the history of Red Crown Gasoline:

Founding and Early Years:
Red Crown Gasoline was a brand owned by the Standard Oil Company of California (SOCAL), which later became Chevron Corporation. The brand was introduced in 1912 and quickly gained popularity among motorists.

Logo and Branding:
Red Crown Gasoline was known for its distinctive logo featuring a red crown on a white background. The logo symbolized the brand's commitment to quality and performance.

Expansion and Success:
Red Crown Gasoline experienced significant growth and success throughout the 1920s and 1930s. It was known for its high-quality fuel and reliable performance, which contributed to its popularity among motorists.

World War II:
During World War II, Red Crown Gasoline played a vital role in supplying fuel to the military. It was used extensively by the U.S. armed forces for various purposes, including aircraft and vehicle operations.

Post-War Era:
After World War II, Red Crown Gasoline continued to thrive and expanded its presence across the United States. It built a reputation for providing clean-burning fuel and reliable service.

Transition to Chevron Brand:
In the 1960s, Standard Oil Company of California rebranded itself as Chevron Corporation. As part of this transition, the Red Crown Gasoline brand gradually phased out, and the stations were rebranded as Chevron stations.

Although the Red Crown Gasoline brand is no longer in use today, it played a significant role in the early development of the petroleum industry and left a lasting impact on the history of gasoline in the United States.
