Default RE: I remember when......

So which one was the original name for Exxon, Esso or Esco. I remember all three, just not the order.

Cox airplanes came with a complete Golden Bee .049 engine including the gas tank, then they came with the engine with a plastic motor mount and the gas tank was molded into the airplane.

Texaco had these neat Fire Helmets with megaphones built in, and the push button microphone clipped into a mount by your ear.

Hobby shops had all kinds of cool stuff, Chemistry sets, and also the glassware like test tubes and beakers.
