This retro poster print is one of four prints of Gilmore Oil .Gilmore Oil –What began as a farmers market and grew to be a successful dairy farm, resulted in Arthur Fremont Gilmore striking oil at the turn of the century in Los Angeles, California. The Gilmore family took their fortune and became very active in the community, constructing Gilmore Stadium in 1934 with the very first race track specifically designed for midget racers.

Just some really super cool retro oil ads from Richfield today. These popular prints are 2 of 4 prints I have available. I will create a package deal for the collection. $40 for the 4 sound like a sweet deal, also including a free shipping bonus for buying all four. Now I just have to get my butt in gear and post it. I think on eBay I will also create a Richfield Collection offer.

A great quality reproduction poster print, would make for a great Father’s Day gift. Dad would love to hang this up in his workshop or garage.
