Sinclair Dino

I've always had a fondness for the Sinclair Dino. Originally created to promote Sinclair’s fossil fuels, the Dino eventually became a symbol of mid-century Americana—appearing on signs, pumps, and even parade floats. I have several vintage pieces from Sinclair; oil cans, lubricant cans, and other advertising memorabilia, but not a Dino. So I set out to recreate Dino, the model is based on an original aluminum Dino seen in the wild. I’ve always appreciated the design and charm of these pieces, and thought others might enjoy printing one as well.If you collect Sinclair items too, or just have a memory tied to this icon, I’d enjoy hearing about it.
