Signs! Signs! Everywhere the signs!
Why is it that in these old pics everything already looks old? Did they build the building old right from the start?

re: old buildings. Loose dimensioned, low quality, sawmill lumber, no primer or paint, and black and white photography disguises the fact that they did live in a world with color in it.

Company formed in 1886. This looks to be not to many years after that.

Yes you can tell by the two HP engine, ironically running on biofuel, not gas. Nothing's new.

This station was remodeled as a car dealership and body shop. These are all photos of the same place throughout the years. I tried posting them in the order taken. I stopped by the dealership to see if they had any old signs or anything left. Looks like I missed out back in 1992...when I was twelve doing wheelies on a BMX. I did score these great photos so I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do. These are five photos of fourteen total.
