AUTO-OLIE: “CAR OIL” The name “Shell” first appeared in 1891 for oil marketed in the Far East by Marcus Samuel, a London merchant from a family that specialized in the trade of shells, antiques, and more… The Shell Transport and Trading Company was founded in 1897 and adopted the scallop shell as its emblem in 1904. In 1907, its merger with the Royal Dutch Petroleum Company, founded in the Netherlands in 1890, gave rise to the Royal Dutch Shell Group.
