Muskegon Gas & Oil Company, aka Musgo, was a Michigan-based petroleum company that started up sometime in the mid-1920s. Collectors believe they were planning on a pretty big footprint in the market given the number of NOS artifacts that still exist today, but nonetheless, Musgo was doomed and dropped off the face of the earth just a few years into their plans for world domination.

Oilzum, one of the first brand names in motor oil, has a rich history dating back to 1888 when F.W. White and H.P. Bagley established the White & Bagley Company in Worcester, Massachusetts. The goal of the company was to develop a practical and uniform quality motor oil with a long service life and good protective properties. Fast forward to 1905, and Oilzum Motor Oil was born. White and Bagley wanted to take the risk and guesswork out of lubrication, and their hard work paid off as Oilzum became a trusted name among early motorists. The familiar Oilzum kid became a fast friend, and the brand took the motor oil industry by storm.
