Have you tried contacting the company in your country?
By the way, this page is for discussing the article, it is not meant for questions about the company itself. 95.145.86.26 (talk) 10:15, 26 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Logo history

edit

The infobox states this logo has been in use since 1965. This can't be, as it can already be seen on this photo of Kennedy's inauguration parade in 1961. The German article de:Deutsch-Amerikanische Petroleum Gesellschaft has this undated evolution of the Esso logo. The first one with the hand-written Esso logo with a swash is already in use on this German photo dated "c. 1932-1935", whereas the German article's talkpage claims the brand name Esso wasn't introduced in Germany until 1938. All of which leaves it a mystery when they changed it from the circle to the oval. Maybe in 1934 in the US, when looking at this English article's infobox? As for the logo reading "STANDARD", that brand name was introduced in Germany in June 1931. In any case, I'd be interested in dates for all the logos on the German logo evolution image. --2003:DA:CF2E:4557:10FE:A05F:264:ECF8 (talk) 15:43, 6 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
