Before Mobil became a household name, there was Gargoyle Mobiloil—one of the earliest and most respected brands in automotive lubrication. Produced by the Vacuum Oil Company, which would later merge into the Mobil we know today, this oil was trusted by drivers, mechanics, and service stations during the early 20th century. The distinct red gargoyle logo was more than eye-catching—it was a promise of protection for engines in every season.
This vintage-style 12” porcelain sign captures the authentic look and feel of those early oil advertisements, complete with original pricing, period-correct typography, and the classic Gargoyle emblem. A must-have for collectors of early Mobil memorabilia, oil history enthusiasts, and vintage garage decor lovers.
We do too. That’s why we don’t cut corners. This Gargoyle Mobiloil 12” Porcelain Sign is built exactly like the originals—real kiln-fired porcelain enamel, layered onto ¼-inch heavy-gauge steel for a finish that lasts a lifetime.
After 15 years as an auctioneer and lifelong collector, I saw firsthand how true craftsmanship was disappearing. Today’s market is flooded with flimsy aluminum replicas and cheap stickers. We bring back the weight, feel, and durability of true vintage porcelain signs, with hand-punched mounting holes, thick steel, and a rich, baked-on finish.
✔ 12” diameter – Perfect size for garage walls, oil racks, and collections
✔ ¼” heavy gauge steel – Thick, durable, and built to last
✔ Hand-rolled edge – Just like the originals, for an authentic feel
✔ Kiln-fired porcelain enamel – Weatherproof and fade-resistant
✔ Hand-punched mounting holes – No pre-drilled factory shortcuts
