Title: A question about the "old" Pure Oil Company
Post by: msubulldog on September 06, 2013, 08:12:56 PM
In the days before they were absorbed by Union 76, I seem to remember that most of their stations were in the Southeast and Midwest. Did they ever have any stations in the mid-Atlantic and New England/Northeast?

I know of at least two active Pure stations in Virginia now.

I knew of a couple around Hampton Roads, including one in Hampton at Fox Hill Rd and Willow Oaks Blvd. Was still open when I moved away in 2011.

I've never seen one in the northeast though.

In one of those odd coincidences, I read this thread the night the night before heading home from Ocean City MD. 
While reading it I thought, "Never heard of that.", and wouldn't you know it, the next day I pass 2 "Pure" stations on US-50 WB in between OC & Salisbury (one of them might have been on the other side of Salisbury.)

Twas one of those "No Shit!" moments.
