New gas station
I believe this was the work of our towns conservation society.
Nobody was working to ask. Any way just thought it was neat.

That's more than neat - it is like stepping back in time to my childhood. I do hope that it is a working gas station rather than just for show.

Oh, look at that - no tens digit on the amount of sale, and no dollar digit on the price!
Museum pieces!

Good Lord!! I used to have a Gulf credit card. One of my early childhood memories is the Mobil flying red horse. Thought that was so cool when we stopped for gas.

.42/gallon... oh that it could be so again, eh. Although I remember a "gas war" during my college days when the price between two stations went to .19/gal.
Thanks for sharing the pics!
