| Washington was justly proud of being the home of one of Eastern Carolina's largest and most complete automobile supply and accessory outlets. The Paul Auto Supply Company with a branch store in Greenville, North Carolina, sold exclusively to the wholesale trade and was established in 1922, by O. T. and H. J. Paul. Henry B. Rumley was manager of the Greenville branch. The local store was located on Respass Street and stocked supplies for all makes of cars and trucks. This business represented an investment of approximately $100,000. All standard replacement parts and garage equipment were sold. The products of the National Carbon Company, Hyvis Oil and lubricants, Globe batteries, the Ramco Piston Rings and Victor gasket lines were stocked and sold. The accompanying photographs will give some idea of the substantial qualities and completeness of those stores.
