Looks like someone did a complete restoration of an old Gulf station on
US 90 in Quincy, FL. This place is restored right down to the
"Mens" and "Ladies" signs, a Gulf clock in the
office window, a small "Gulf Cards Honored" sign, a 5-cent
Coca-Cola vending machine and lots of other stuff. Inside the service bays
there are several fully restored vintage Gulf and Texaco gas pumps
including two of the very tall glass cylinder pumps from WAY back.
I don't think this station is actually selling gasoline. It looks
more like someone's personal museum.

Besides gas and oil, Gulf manufactured a variety of chemicals for household and
industrial use, such as household paraffin. Above is the end flap from a box
of paraffin. You can still find "Gulf Wax" paraffin in stores,
but it's not made by or related to Gulf anymore and doesn't carry the Gulf logo.
