Vintage gas station Pictures

That's great that this one was still standing into the 80's. I hope it didn't get destroyed in the name of progress.

 

Interesting it has two newer '70s style pumps, and the older '50s style one.

 

This image dated to November 29, 1939 by the source is appropriate for this time of year. It features four Neptune Chemical Pump Company motor fuel dispensers at a Pepper gasoline station located in the Cincinnati area. The Oil Company’s “Winter Lightning” blend of gasoline, then as now, was blended to improve vaporization in cold temperatures to improve winter starting.

This isn't a gas station, but I thought you all might be interested in these pumps I saw today.

 

Bottom pic, on the shelves upper right, between the two milk cans, I'd love to have that Phillips 66 can.

 

Again, not a station, but my living room.

Where are you hiding Ethyl. In the bedroom?

 

Pretty neat huh?

Man, that is awesome!

 

Ethyl more so. She's wearing the wig and is laying down on the right side of the double bed
