Description: 2 Vintage OIL INDUSTRY Booklets ETHYL NEWS - Feb '49 & RESEARCH LABORATORIES OF THE ETHYL CORPORATION 8" by 11" & 8 1/2" by 11" 22 pages & 36 pages By THE ETHYL CORPORATION FREE SHIPPING You are bidding on a pair of cool, vintage US OIL INDUSTRY publications from right as the Post World War 2 era was coming into its own. These publications are both from THE ETHYL CORPORATION, and you will receive an employee/stockholder news magazine "ETHYL NEWS", and you will get a "RESEARCH LABORATORIES" publication. They are both from circa 1949 - and Ethyl News is dated February 1949. These are neat glimpses into how that huge oil industry company saw the world. Back when the biggest problem American consumers seemed to have was "knockin" in their engines while accelerating. This is a very interesting point in time. The Ethyl News is 22 pages, and the Research Labs book is 36 pages. They are both full of articles and lots of photos and illustrations. What a great find over 60 years after publication.

The subjects include: ETHYL NEWS A Message To Your Son (Life used to be much different before cars) Knockout Powder For Pests (Ethyl producing insecticides) A Paper Is Born (Research behind writing technical papers) Unique Research Center (Three way Research Team) Showcase for Commerce (New Orleans based promotional team) New Nitrogen Plant At Baton Rouge RESEARCH LABORATORIES OF THE ETHYL CORPORATION Foreward Comprehensive Research Research for Today - Tomorrow - & The Fututre Complete & Modern Facilities for Research Ethyl Fluid Must Be Right Tomorrow's Ethyl Products Must Be The Best High Standards Maintained Through Research Good Gasolines & Good Lubricants Go Hand In Hand Better Fuels & Engines Through Research Aviation Type Fuels Are Studied Under Conditions Representative of Aircraft Engine Operations Many Different Engines for Research Many Dynamometers Actual Road Service is Simulated By Automated Dynamometers Special Fuels Used for Research Effects of Engine Operation Carefully Studied Vehicle Abilities Determined Under Tropic Heat or Arctic Cold Specialized Equipment For Special Problems Final Proof of the Laboratory Research is in Vehicle Road Operation There is edge and corner wear, mostly on the covers.
