Union Oil gas station, Los Angeles, circa 1931

 

Union Oil gas station, Los Angeles, circa 1931I love everything about this circa 1931 photo: the architecture of the Union Oil gas station, the modern miss out and about in her two-seater convertible, and the fact that she’s being assisted by not one but two attendants dressed in uniforms who probably pumped her gas, checked her tires, oil and water, cleared her windows, and possibly even gave her directions.

    This almost looks like a movie shot. Wonder what the kid (?) in the far right is thinking.

    I can remember when the attendant ran out to the pump and tended to full service treatment, but I never had two come out to help me haha! Of course, I wasn’t dolled up like this dame.

    Great ole vintage shot, Martin.
