The Standard

February 16, 2021

Standard Oil Co. Inc. was an American oil-producing, transporting, refining, and marketing company. Established in 1870 by John D. Rockefeller and Henry Flagler as a corporation, it was the largest oil refinery in the world of its time and aside from producing and distributing their products, ran an extensive network of service stations across America. This design includes the 1889 Standard Oil of Indiana badge which was the division initially created exclusively for service center (gas station) operations.
