Sinclair has used this dinosaur as their logo for many years. In old radio and TV commercials the slogan was: "Put a Dino in your tank."
This small statue is well maintained and even a flower bed is well kept.
Most oil companies have modified their corporate emblem while undergoing reorganization or ownership changes. Sinclair's trademark has remained unchanged. With the current popularity of dinosaurs in general, the Sinclair trademark and the sales promotion items using the apatosaurus are more popular than ever.
