Anyone know the story behind the Mo-Pac and these Photos. Was it a public relations promo or what?

They were a MoP promo item. I got a set in the mid-60s from the freight agent in Baytown, Tx. I still have them too.

The MoP was very good at gimmes. Especially to the children of the Humble Refinery Traffic Department employees. Guess what my dad did back then. ;) The SP was a little mire stingy. -- Keith Thompson

I received some of these in the mid 1970's after sending a letter to the MOPAC requesting information on the company.

I actually wrote to most of the Class 1's at that time and got all sorts of stuff.
