A familiar flying red horse.

The Pegasus logo adorned Mobil Gas stations around the world. Fuel arrived in Kulin in bulk by rail. It was pumped into 44 gallon drums and the garage owner stencilled the top with the brand he sold! The Kulin Museum has a considerable collection of petrol station - related stencils and signs.
