This sub-series includes brochures, pamphlets and other publications, news clippings, press releases, financial information, speeches and corporate policies documenting Standard Oil Company (New Jersey) and Exxon Corporation’s corporate-level activities and functions, the efforts of the public affairs department to respond to issues affecting the company and the industry, and the charitable work of the Exxon Education Foundation.
Publications and other materials originally intended for and distributed to shareholders and the general public comprise a large part of this material, including annual meeting proceedings and quarterly newsletters conveying the financial health of the corporation. [Annual Reports for Standard Oil Company (New Jersey) and Exxon can be found in the collection’s Exxon Publications series.]
The Public Affairs material highlights most aspects of the corporation’s business and documents a wealth of corporate changes spanning several decades. The department produced countless publications for public consumption on topics as varied as corporate-government relations, offshore drilling and environmental policy. Speeches by a succession of corporate executives present a reliable source of corporate thought and policy. Of particular note are the publications comprising the Exxon Background Series, which addressed issues impacting Exxon through out the 1970s and early 1980s, such as environmental concerns, Middle East Oil and the company’s social responsibility.
The Exxon Education Foundation material documents its mission to fund institutions of higher learning, particularly in science education and research. Dimensions, the Foundation’s annual report, provides an overview of the Foundation’s activities as well as Exxon’s contributions to a variety of projects, including sponsorship of museum exhibitions, performing arts programs and television.

Marketing 1916-1962
(1.3 ft.)
This sub-series consists of print advertisements, press releases, clippings, correspondence, and contest material for Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and its affiliated and descendant companies.
Advertisements for insecticides and laxatives (1916-1950) illustrate petroleum products, besides oil and gasoline, which the company marketed. Esso Research ads also feature assorted petroleum and chemical products such as nylon, plastic and wax.
Of note are the 1960 campaigns announcing the change of the Carter and Pate brands to Enco (short for “Energy Company”). Because other “Standard Oils” operated around the country – California, Indiana, Ohio, for example – Standard Oil (New Jersey) marketed its oil and gas products using different brand names in different regions, which the bulk of the ads reflect. In 1960, the Standard Oil affiliate Humble Oil & Refining Company absorbed Esso Standard, which was Standard Oil (New Jersey)’s domestic operating company, and the affiliates Carter, Oklahoma and Pate. From that point on, Humble, the company, marketed its products using the brand names Humble in Texas and Ohio, Esso (the phonetic spelling of the abbreviation “S.O.”) on the east coast, and Enco in 19 other states. As such, the Humble company name appeared in gasoline ads for both Humble (1960-1962) and Esso (1945-1965) throughout the 1960s.
Materials related to a 1962 contest promotion are included; winners could claim prizes at their local Esso service stations.
