A Violet Ray Gasoline Porcelain Sign recently sold at Barrett-Jackson, the worlds greatest collector car auctions. And it sold quick! Very few are real, authentic porcelain signs exist in todays market since most of them were destroyed during World War II.
Violet Ray Gasoline was a unique type of gas introduced in 1928 by the General Petroleum Corporation. What made this fuel special was its violet colo. General Petroleum wanted to market a superior anti-knock product which would fulfill all the requirements of high-compression type engines, as well as function perfectly in all other types of motors. It was developed in a violet color that would change if it was exposed to any inferior motor fuel.
