Montana Chief traces back to a refinery most people outside Spokane never heard of. Inland Empire Refineries, Inc. — owned by Wasatch Oil Refining of Salt Lake City — built its plant in Hillyard, just north of Spokane, in 1938. The crude came rolling in from the Cut Bank oil field in Montana.

Set of 4 cork-backed coasters, 3.75" x 3.75" square. High-gloss printed MDF top, natural cork base protects surfaces. Vintage Montana Chief emblem printed in full color.

Inland Empire didn't sell one gasoline, it sold a family of them — Washington Chief locally, Idaho Chief and Oregon Chief across the state lines, all running on the same Montana crude. Wasatch Oil merged into Phillips Petroleum in 1949.

The perfect gift for petroliana collectors tracking Pacific Northwest and Montana oil history, classic car enthusiasts, and housewarming gifts.

The Faded Label Co. — keeping the golden age of American roadside art alive, one product at a time.
