The top of the cab reads: "Mobiloil" while the driver side door reads: "Vacuum Oil Company 343 S. Dearborn St. Chicago 8." The oil tank itself reads "Mobiloil" with logos on either side. The phrase "The World's Quality Oil" is on the side of the carrier with the "Mobiloil" logo beneath. The truck is parked on railroad tracks and in the background is a rail car, three parked vehicles on the grass, and one vehicle parked on the cobblestone street. There are blurred images of the figures of people near the parked vehicles. |
