Anyone know if this is a Pure station?
Saw it in Moose Lake MN over the weekend. Two pumps still out front but out of business and FOR SALE!
Thought it was cool, had to take a picture and share.

Yes that's an original Pure oil cottage station.
Should start a September found along the way thread!
Thanks for sharing!

It's amazing the building is still in such super original condition. It looks as if all of the original building features are still there, which is pretty unbelievable after 75+ years. Darin

Thanks for the info!
I swear if I won the lottery I would buy up all of these old stations to restore and collect them.
I just hope it doesn't get torn down. Would make a great malt shop, etc. Moose Lake gets plenty of summer tourism.
When I passed it initially, it was like passing a topless woman - Had to do a triple take! It still is in very decent condition.
