    Standard Oil of New Jersey
    Standard Oil of New Jersey formed in 1911 upon the breakup of Standard Oil. Although Socony (Standard Oil of New York) owned the rights to marketing in the New England States, the company allowed Standard Oil of New Jersey to market its products there under the name Esso (which stands for the S and O of Standard Oil).
    Use of the Esso trademark was restricted in the United States, so Standard Oil of New Jersey (Jersey Standard) hired renowned industrial designer Raymond Loewy (1893-1986) to create a new name and logo for the brand.
    In many states, Jersey Standard marketed its products under the brand ‘Esso’, which is the phonetic pronunciation of the initials ‘S’ and ‘O’ in Standard Oil. However in other states, the other Standard Oil companies objected. In those states, Jersey Standard marketed under the brands Enco (Energy Company) and Humble (an oil company they acquired). Jersey Standard became Exxon Corporation in 1972 and in 1999 joined with Mobil Oil Corporation, formerly Socony-Vacuum Oil, to form Exxon Mobil Corporation.

    Dear Customers, in light of the C virus situation, it has come to my attention that the USPS is moving very slowly, even on the intake of the packages. So although i get the items out in a timely manner, items are NOT showing up in the system. I ask that if you purchased from me recently in the past 12 month or so, realize that this is not a reflection of me sending out your item in a timely fashion. But please keep in touch and let me know your situation.
