Signs - Gas Station... Blast From The Past

Andy | Wednesday, February 18, 2015 | Best Blogger Tips

Also known as Canadian Oil, White Rose used to be gasoline service stations in Canada. In 1962 Shell Oil bought Canadian Oil (White Rose), which included 2,900 retail outlets, refineries in Sarnia, Ontario and Bowden, Alberta. I'm linking to Lesley's Signs, Signs.

    I bet that sign is porcelain and it's worth a bunch of $$. I like the old car parts hanging on the walls too.

    I've never heard of it, Andy, though I'm sure my dad would remember.

    Interesting. I've never heard of White Rose before. Looks like that sign would be a nice collectible for someone now.
