Neat to see the building restored. I've never been to Woolaroc Ranch but after reading the information on the website I have to make a trip there. I have family from my mothers side that lives around Bartlesville but haven't visited there in probably forty years. May have relatives that were in the oil business, who knows?

I was browsing though that vintage ad website that Dave posted earlier and saw this Phillips ad from 1934. Look at the station building in the ad, it's the same as this one being restored for Wollaroc. Thought that was interesting.....GB

I watched the city destroy an English cottage Pure station one time, it seriously makes you wanna cry when it happens. Hats off to these folks for stepping up. Thanks
