Fill 'er up, please
Click and enlarge this beautiful vintage gas pump at A. C. Smith & Co. and you'll see that the last sale was for $4.40! I wonder how long ago that was? It's fun to see the old mobilgas logo here. Do you have a favorite old gas sign? If you haven't had your fill (pardon the pun), come back tomorrow for a visual treat I found inside this gas station.

What a great, nostalgic photo! It reminds me of Route 66.
What a funky tone of the post... reminds of cheap...glittery candy wrappers!
Yeah!!! A close up on MY gas pump! Thank you!!! $4.40 seems perfect to me. When can I pick it up?
My favorite old gas signs are - Esso and Burmah Shell, which I saw growing up.
