Additional Information

Founded in 1879, Wolf’s Head Motor Oil Company sells oils, coolants, and lubricants for automotive-products. The company uses multiple slogans including, “Finest of the Fine," “Run with the Wolf,” and "The Uncommon Motor Oil." The 1968 Grime Buster marketing campaign may be related to the television show Crime Buster, which aired the same year.
