Old Garages of Days Gone By

Old Imperial Oil Gas Station/Garage


In the next picture, notice the kid jumping on the bell hose.

 YOU ever done that?

Anyone recognize this Shell Station??

Notice the prices on the next one

  Yes that's only $ .34 for Hi test

  And $ .28 for regular!

  Oh, don't forget the 9/10% of a penny.

Yeah . . . I remember!

And with a fill-up, you got...

The gas pumped for you,

Your windshield cleaned,

Oil & fluids checked,

Tires checked,

A free map, if you wanted it.

Alas, green or plaid stamps; and free glasses, towels, etc.

Yeah!  I sure DO remember!!!

Such wonderful, wonderful Days Gone By!!



Anyone with pictures of Old Garages please email or send pictures in the mail; I can scan them, put them on-line.
