Russian diplomat under the
nzar, died Monday.
So if you’ll fill out the coupon below we’ll send you a tree pink valve
cap that you can put on right now; to sort of give you the feeling that
your tires are filled with Premium Pink even though you’re still riding
around on Regular air. In one way a pink valve cap is better than Pink
Air (or any other additive) because you can at least see it.
Choice
of many
styles
VEN if everything goes slick as axle grease you won’t be able
to get your tires filled with Pink Air, Fina’s Additive of the
Future, until May 12,1966. Since that’s a long time to wait for
anything-even a pretty additive like Pink Air-we’d like to
I do something to tide you over.
Fina station and it’s on your side so you don’t have to make a U-turn
through traffic and there aren’t six cars waiting and you need gas or
something,•• please stop in.

At any rate, a pink valve cap will remind you that we are thinking
about you. And also that Fina stations sell a lot of other things besides
gas and oil, hundreds of items actually, all first rate; in tires, for in-
stance, Goodyear and Firestone both. We even have a special division
called TBA (for Tires/Batteries. Accessories) to handle them.

Before we forget it, one TBA item will be free: Pink valve caps; just
as soon as we can get them out to the stations. Meanwhile, why wait?
Be the first one on your block! You're probably missing a valve cap
anyway, so fill out the coupon and send it in. We have also, at popular
request (no kidding), included a box to be checked by those who wish
to apply for a Fina Credit card.*** Thank you.

We'd spend more time here trying to sell you TBA except we know
that usually the only time you are interested in buying windshield
wipers, fan belts, spark plugs, and such is when the old ones wear out.
At which point you drive in and we fix you up with new ones. So, out-
side of keeping as good a stock of TBA items as the size of the station
permits - and standing staunchly behind their quality - the best thing
we can do to sell TBA is wait for you to show up.*
Which is why we say: If you’re driving down the road and you see a
