Esso Gas "Put a Tiger in Your Tank" Large 30-Inch Porcelain Service Station Sign

Esso – Put a Tiger in Your Tank

Before gas stations became mini-marts, they had personality—and nothing captured that better than Esso’s roaring tiger campaign. This bold 32” vintage-style porcelain sign takes you back to the golden age of roadside America, when a full tank came with a smile, a map, and maybe even a collectible decal. With its fierce, mid-pounce tiger and warm yellow background, it’s a throwback to a time when fuel had flavor and advertising had teeth.

Whether you grew up with this campaign or just appreciate iconic American brands and vintage gas & oil pump plates, this one’s guaranteed to stand out in any collection.

Remember when people were proud to own things? When American-made meant something?

We do too. That’s why we don’t cut corners. This Esso “Put a Tiger in Your Tank” 32” Porcelain Sign is made exactly like the originals—real kiln-fired porcelain enamel, fused to ¼-inch heavy-gauge steel for that rich, glossy finish and old-school heft.

Built Like the Originals—Because It Is.
