GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Celebrate a classic name in American fuel-brand design with this Atlantic Richfield Company ceramic ornament. The ARCO-inspired artwork looks to the 1966 merger of Atlantic Refining and Richfield Oil and the unforgettable red diamond Spark. Its story reaches from early Pittsburgh and Los Angeles service stations to the Prudhoe Bay discovery, Sinclair acquisition, and the ARCO signs remembered across the West. Hang it as a seasonal keepsake or display it year-round in a garage, office, or collector space dedicated to road trips, petroliana, and corporate design history.
ARCO was established in 1966 as the Atlantic Richfield Company, created when East Coast-based Atlantic Refining merged with California-based Richfield Oil Corporation. Its name combined those predecessors, while Herbert Bayer designed the red diamond ARCO Spark trademark. Atlantic heritage reached back to 1866, and its first filling station opened in Pittsburgh in 1915; Richfield opened an early California station in Los Angeles in 1917. ARCO acquired Sinclair Oil in 1969 and unified its service brands under ARCO. The company discovered Prudhoe Bay Oil Field with Exxon in 1968 and opened its first ampm convenience store in Southern California in 1978. ARCO acquired Anaconda Copper Mining Company in 1977, spun off ARCO Chemical in 1987, and sold ARCO Solar to Siemens in 1990. BP acquired ARCO in 2000, with ARCO Alaska sold to Phillips Petroleum and ARCO Pipe Line Company acquired by TEPPCO. In 2012 and 2013, BP sold the Carson refinery, ARCO brand ownership, and specified western assets to Tesoro. Tesoro became Andeavor in 2017 and was acquired by Marathon Petroleum in 2018.
