Governor Edward Winslow House
It was built in 1699. Contains many antiques. Everything is arranged to look as if it were still 1700. It is interesting to note that some of the old colonists lived in sumptuous style.

The house is open June 1st to October 1st, admission 25c. Leaving here turn left on Webster Road and see the final home of Daniel Webster.

American Oil Company
HAS PLAYED A BIG PART IN MAKING HISTORY
★
Just as Boston is proud of the part it has played in the history of America, so the American Oil Company is proud of its part in the history of the gasoline and automotive industries.
Starting in 1910 with one horse-drawn tank wagon, the American Oil Company has grown until it reaches from Maine to Florida and inland. The American Oil Company developed Amoco-Gas, the first and original special motor fuel, in 1915. Amoco-Gas revolutionized the gasoline and automotive industries—made possible today’s high compression motor. The first company-operated filling station in the East was an American Oil Company station. American Oil Company introduced the first visible gasoline pump—enabling motorists to see what they’re buying.
The American Oil Company’s growth has been built on one cardinal principle: Honest Values, Honestly Described.
You can be sure you are getting the greatest possible value when you drive in at the Amoco Sign of Greater Values. American’s Big Three of Quality are: Amoco-Gas, which holds more official world’s records than any other motor fuel; American Gas, the best buy at regular gas price; Amoco Motor Oil, made from choice selected paraffine base crudes.
Drive in at the Sign of Greater Values—from Maine to Florida and inland.
