You can see the reflection of the globe in the window. I dont recognize them. Anyone have any guesses/thoughts as to what brand the lenses advertise??

I like how the Mobil station from the late 50's is repurposing the old tombstone sign.

1958 Found this on a local historic site. About 4 miles from me. There is a Sunoco there today.

JR, if I am not mistaken the last Gilmore Station in SW WA, was in Chehalis. Not sure that the Station is still there? But it was, approx. 20 years ago... There was a little plaque on one of the canopy supports, put up by the Station Owner....
There is/was a story; That the Owner of the Gilmore Station was not pleased with the merger and that subsequent Station Owners kept the plaque on the support, in remembrance... (as I said, it is a story and I have no way of knowing if it is/was true or not.... If true, I can relate... After almost 50 years... I am still upset about Tidewater selling out to Phillips 66)
Looking for Tide Water/ Tide Water-Associated/ Tidewater items

unfortunately this picture stinks. At lease you can see the main signage pretty good. But I had to post it cuz you don't see vintage pics of this brand all that often. "Speedway 79" becomes "Marathon" when it was bought up in 1959. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedway_LLC
