Gas Pump Details
H-C Gasoline was one of Sinclair's earliest products and was common throughout Midwestern states in the 1920s. In 1926 Sinclair leapt ahead of most of its competitors with H-C, the industry's original high octane premium gasoline for motor cars. This replica is sure to look great in your game room, on your patio, or in your garage! Estimated value: $2,500.
Thanks to Paul Garrett at PG Series for providing this wonderful prize!
