This is a Union Oil Company 76 Gasoline brand promotional card printed to be handed out to fuel purchasers. The description on the back includes the publisher's promotional phrase "Natural Color Scenes of the West." It reads: "A community owned and operated 20,000 sea acre man-made harbor protected by the longest breakwater in the world, where ships from the far corners of the earth bring and carry away a variet of products and merchandise. Ranks first as a world oil port and as a Pacific Coast fishing port." The picture shown is of interfingering peninsular projections from the California mainland, with ships and storage buildings.
