Lake Geneva Auto Station
Image
View across street towards a convertible automobile with a fender-mounted spare tire parked in front of the Lake Geneva Auto Station on the south side of Main Street. It is pulling a racing yacht on a trailer. A "Garage" sign in the shape of an automobile hangs over the sidewalk; next to it a smaller sign reads "Authorized Buick Service." A Buick sign is also mounted on the front of the adjacent two-story building. The building further to the left, identified by a sign as the Main St. Garage, also has a sign for a jeweler on it. There are gas pumps in front of the Main St. Garage and the Lake Geneva Auto Station.
