During September and October, 1475
critical users of premium -priced gasolines
were asked to test an unidentified, colorless
gasoline which was in reality Nu -Blue
Sunoco with the coloring left out. From
Florida to Canada, these tests were con-
ducted, not by us, but by independent,
unbiased research authorities, and when
the returns were summarized, it was found
that these motorists voted 9 to 1 in favor
of Nu -Blue Sunoco° 9 out of 10 pro-
claimed it equal or superior to premium -
priced gasolines they had used previously.
To make a fair test, don't dilute
Nu -Blue Sunoco with other gas.olitae.
Let your tank run practically empty. Theta
put in Nu -Blue Sunoco. 'Compare it par.
ticularly with premium -priced gasolines-
We'Il rest our case on your findings.
