In my area, most of that had faded out by the time I was old enough to
drive. When I was younger, and a passenger in my parent's cars (1970's and
early 80's) I can still remember that the "name brand" places like Chevron,
Exxon, etc., still did that. The convenience stores had not yet put those
places out of business.
