Description
About Atlas Tires
- Atlas was a tire and battery brand created by Standard Oil (and later sold via Esso and Exxon stations) in the 1930s and 1940s.
- This sign is a rare survivor from the Golden Age of American Service Stations, when full-service gas stations were adorned with bold, colorful advertising.
- Original porcelain signs with intact neon from pre-WWII years are increasingly scarce due to:
- War-time metal drives.
- Harsh weathering in outdoor environments.
Neon and Porcelain Combination
- Porcelain neon signs from the late 1930s are among the most collectible due to:
- Their limited production lifespan.
- The technical difficulty of preserving both enamel and neon elements.
- Neon + Porcelain combination is especially desirable to collectors of:
- Automobilia
- Petroliana (gas station collectibles)
- Americana advertising
