{"product_id":"marathon-oil-ceramic-coaster","title":"Marathon Oil Ceramic Coaster","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBring a little petroleum history to the table with a Marathon Oil ceramic coaster. The company’s story reaches back to The Ohio Oil Company, founded in Lima, Ohio, in 1887, while the Marathon name came into the fold through a 1930 acquisition. Its heritage spans early oil-country enterprise, service-station culture, and the Houston-based exploration era. A thoughtful accent for a desk, den, bar, or garage, it suits collectors who enjoy industrial Americana and legacy corporate design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarathon Oil began in Lima, Ohio, in 1887 as The Ohio Oil Company. Standard Oil acquired the business in 1889, and Ohio Oil became independent again following the 1911 breakup of Standard Oil. In 1930, Ohio Oil acquired Transcontinental Oil Company and its Marathon retail fuel brand, a transition that gave the company the name seen on generations of petroleum signage and merchandise. The company adopted the Marathon Oil Company name in 1962, when Speedway 79 and Marathon fuel stations were consolidated under the Marathon name. U.S. Steel acquired Marathon in January 1982; USX Corporation then served as parent of U.S. Steel and Marathon Oil. Marathon re-emerged as Marathon Oil Corporation through the USX separation in 2001 and subsequent 2002 renaming. In 2011, it spun off downstream operations as Marathon Petroleum. Based in Houston from 1990, Marathon Oil operated as an exploration-focused company before ConocoPhillips acquired it in November 2024.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCeramic coaster engraved with a simple, vintage-style wordmark that brings a quiet, archival charm to a coffee table or office desk. The cool ceramic top takes heat and condensation with calm confidence while the cork backing keeps cups steady and surfaces safe. It sits easily beside a well-loved mug during long work sessions or late-night reading, a small, steady surface that feels both practical and quietly nostalgic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable white ceramic surface resists heat and moisture\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Non-slip cork backing prevents sliding and protects surfaces\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Available in round (4.06\") and square (3.94\") sizes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Easy to wipe clean — suitable for hot and cold drinks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Made in South Korea with ceramic and cork materials\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Gently wipe the dirt or dust off with a clean, dry microfiber cloth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\\\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eRound\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eSquare\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e4.06\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.94\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eWidth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e4.06\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.94\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Generic brand, 2 year warranty in EU and Northern Ireland as per Directive 1999\/44\/EC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarnings, Hazard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Made in South Korea, For adults\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gently wipe the dirt or dust off with a clean, dry microfiber cloth\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"Round \/ One size","offer_id":54582788784412,"sku":"17394159257193573274","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/marathon-oil-ceramic-coaster","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
