Description
The Buick Oil Company was founded by the auto pioneer David Dunbar Buick (1854-1929) and was incorporated in Los Angeles, California in March, 1910. David Dunbar Buick (September 17, 1854 [x=#241/] March 5, 1929) was a Scottish-born American Detroit-based inventor, best known for founding the Buick Motor Company. He headed this company and its predecessor from 1899 until 1906, thereby helping to create one of the most successful nameplates in United States motor vehicle history. Unfortunately, Buick wasn't president of the oil company by 1912, so he doesn't sign here. Signed by J.B. Lehigh as vice-president. According to a stock investment tout sheet, the company controlled 640 acres of the choicest oil lands right in the very heart of California's famous oil fields. Issued for 10 shares in 1912.
