and address of the seller, the name and address of the purchaser, the number of gallons
sold or delivered, the grade of liquid fuel, and the signature of the person making
such sale or delivery or his agent. One of such tickets shall be given to the purchaser and the other shall be retained
by the seller for a period of 1 year, such retained tickets being subject to inspection
by any weights and measures official. Delivery tickets shall be serially numbered. No duplicate or retained ticket shall be destroyed but may be voided and kept on
