A modern (1923) service station, where
supplies of gasoline, lubricating oil and other products
of crude oil may be obtained. At the right of the picture
is the runway which many dealers maintain for convenience
in draining the automobile crankcase and refilling it
with lubricating oil, and for performing the many greasing
services they render owners of automobiles and trucks. |
|
Dealers in the products of petroleum,
or crude oil, were everywhere, making it convenient for
the motorist to secure supplies. There were more than
10,000 of the boy-and-slate signs scattered throughout
the middle states in the 1920's and the En-Ar-Co-grams
were read by thousands of people daily. |
