    Description

    6 ENCO 1960s Happy Motoring Service Cardboard Tokens-Hard to Find! Humble Oil
    This listing is for a lot of 6 ENCO cardboard tokens as shown in images. They are cardboard and measure 2" diameter. From what I have been able to research is customers would give a token or more to a service attendant who provided excellent service. I believe customers received a sheet of these and would punch out the tokens. The station would then send these to the company and the attendant or station would receive recognition or awards depending on how many were received. These date from the 1960s. In excellent, near mint condition. I'm selling these in lots of 6.
    n 1959, Jersey Standard secured full control of Humble Oil and restructured it into its U.S. marketing and refining division, to market nationwide under the Enco, Esso and Humble brands. Enco was created as an abbreviation of the phrase "ENergy COmpany." Humble introduced the Enco brand in 1960 in Oklahoma
    and surrounding states, to replace Humble's subsidiary Oklahoma and Pate brands.
    In 1961, Humble stations in Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas
    were rebranded to Enco. That same year, Enco appeared on former Carter stations in the Midwest and the Pacific Northwest.
    In 1972, Exxon was unveiled as the new, unified brand name for all former Enco and Esso outlets.

    Dealing with hundreds and hundreds of items, rarely a manufacturing or other error will occur or just a plain simple mistake. While I work extremely hard to be perfect, I'm only human and just a one person operation trying to handle home, husband going through chemo for cancer and eBay. PLEASE contact me before leaving neutral or negative feedback or low DSRs. I will do my absolute best to insure you are a happy customer but can't do so if I'm not contacted.
    I do combine shipping but it seems eBay systems cannot combine first class shipping amounts to priority. So if you purchase multiple items please request invoice before you pay so I can adjust/combine shipping. If not, I do refund excess shipping back via PayPal.
    Please note that some kits (plastic canvas & linens) may be folded in half for shipment - that saves you, as a buyer, money on shipping and my shipping rates reflect this. If you prefer these type of kits to not be folded then please send me a note to adjust shipping in box. Most cross stitch not folded - shipped with cardboard reinforcement.
    Please note that with "stamped" linen items that the ink is water soluable. The ink saturation may vary from dark to light - it is meant to be stitched and laundered so that the ink washes out and stitching remains. Darker ink may need to be laundered longer or a second time.
    International buyers: I DO NOT adjust amounts on customs forms.
