Bluemoose; thanks for the many pics especially those of the Northern Ohio area.
Miss Cuyahoga, Detroit Cinema, Shaker Hts...etc.

 

Wonder where this was taken and why they spelled Gasoline differently. A google search found this definition .....

Noun 1. gasolene - a volatile flammable mixture of hydrocarbons (hexane and heptane and octane etc.) derived from petroleum; used mainly as a fuel in internal-combustion engines.

Notice that there are only three numbers on the pump to record the price? A fill-up with Premium Gasolene in this Buick was $5.00 and change.

 

I've also noticed that unusual spelling for gasoline on some of the old cans I have...

 

My guess on these is about 1955. I am on the deer and I am 63 now.

 

Wow, look how bald that tire is!

 

Nostalgia is my passion and these pics are tremendous! Wow! Thanks for posting!

Thanks for the great memories.

 

$ 23 cents a gallon????? Plus they did everything except overhaul your car.
Water, battery, tires, windshield, etc. etc. Those were the good old days!
Looking back at the past is pretty refreshing.

 

Great pics! Loved Rita Hayworth, Lana Turner, Jean Harlow.
