Heceta Head (Union Oil no. 65) (Oregon)
Over the years, Union Oil Company of California issued a series of cards (“See the Old West this year with 76 Gasoline”) (the slogan varies over time) depicting western U.S.A. landmarks. This card, dated 1941, is one of those. We have two of these. One was mailed in 1943 with 1-cent stamp and Cottage Grove, Oregon, postmark–and a message that so totally resonates with us as we have read (or tried to read) thousands of similar messages from eras past (Grade: 1, $7). The other is unused and with a minor smudge on the reverse (Grade: 2, $5).
