Main Street and Two Gas Stations
| Main Street, with two competing curb-side gas stations across the street from each other. Cars are parked along both sides of the muddy street. Such curb-side service stations were typical of the early days of automobiles. Perhaps the large mud puddle in front of the Sinclair gas pumps has given the advantage this time to the station on the left. |
