This is a very rare two-sided piece of Third Reich advertising by the German part of Standard Oil Company. The German name for Standard Oil Company in Germany was Deutsch-Amerikanische Petroleum Gesellschaft or German-American Gasoline Company. When World War II was over, the company was fined for its close relationship with the government of an enemy country and for its cooperation with IG Farbenindustrie, the inventor of Zyklon B, the gas used in concentration camps.
The 5-7/8 x 8-1/4 inch, two-sided flyer urged German motorists to change from summer to winter oil - produced by Standard Oil of course - since fall weather was near. The text on the back (shown left) explains the need to change from summer to winter oil and how its optimizes the performance of a car's engine.
Undated but absolutely original to Third Reich Nazi Germany. Almost all of these kinds of advertisements were quite naturally destroyed at the end of the war or used as evidence in court.
Rare and in very good condition, exactly as shown.
