{"product_id":"standard-oil-company-ohio-sohio-metal-bottle-opener","title":"Standard Oil Company (Ohio) (Sohio) Metal Bottle Opener","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSohio memorabilia recalls the service stations that carried a distinctive Ohio identity, alongside Boron stations in neighboring states. Founded in 1870, Standard Oil Company (Ohio) became a separate company after the 1911 breakup of the Standard Oil trust, then entered a new chapter through its BP partnership and eventual rebranding. This bottle opener offers a conversation-starting connection to that history for collectors of petroleum advertising and anyone who enjoys objects tied to changing names in American roadside life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStandard Oil Company (Ohio), commonly known as Sohio, began in 1870 under founder John D. Rockefeller. It became a separate company after the 1911 breakup of the Standard Oil trust and operated stations as Sohio in Ohio. In nearby states, it used the Boron name, introduced in 1954. In 1968, Sohio arranged a partnership with BP tied to development of the Prudhoe Bay oilfield and construction of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. BP gained majority control in 1978 after production reached the agreed threshold, then bought the remaining 45 percent of Sohio in 1987. The company’s U.S. operations were unified as BP America, while gasoline sales under the Sohio name continued until 1991. Sohio and Boron stations operated across Ohio and neighboring states; in 1985, Sohio also acquired former Gulf stations in several southeastern states. A 1946 Sohio station in Steubenville, Ohio, was restored in vintage Sohio colors as a museum in 2011. The company’s corporate history links the Standard Oil breakup to the BP era and to the changing names and signs of American fuel retailing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis slim, all-metal bottle opener feels like the trusted tool you reach for when friends gather and stories start.
