Eight expertly hand-coloured silver gelatin photographs, all w/ photographer's imprint at lower right corner, printed on glossy photo paper stock, and w/ only the slightest bleed-through on versos of a couple images, NF set of image. These nicely hand-coloured photographs vividly depict several outfitted Mobilgas trucks at the end of World War II, filled with such products from Socony-Vacuum Oil as "Bug-a-boo" Inspect Spray, Mobiloil Kerosene, Power Fuel,Mobilgrease, and Mobiloil Gear Oils, and even Sanilac Cattle Spray.The 1945 Chevrolet/GMC models continued much of the styling cues of the pre-War Chevy's and GMC's but featured larger engines, updated wiring, larger radiator for cooling, and other changes which contributed to their reliability and durability as trucks. The Socony-Vacuum Oil Company was formed in 1931 as a merger between two of the Standard Oil Co. successor companies formed after the 1911 break-up, and sold both Mobiloil and Gargoyle products. Eventually the company would be renamed Socony Mobil in 1955, and finally Mobil in 1966. Tyner (1886-1957) was a longtime commercial photographer in Kansas City, well known for not only architectural photographs, but also U.S. Presidents, celebrities, and major events in the Kansas City area until his death.
