    1930s - "Ragsdale & Hansen's $ Station No. 1", a Los Angeles gas station which advertises wholesale and retail. Two pumps stand on either side of the small office of the station at center, each with signs that read "Monoplane Gasoline". A large "$" sign sits on the roof of the station with the****le directly below it.

    Still in business today, I think picture is circa 1920's. Long since moved from this location in the middle of village to a mile south. It's where I take all my vehicles now. N. Broadway Red Hook NY

    Not exactly sure why, but this guy looks like he might be a board-track motorcycle racer on the weekends. I'm thinking there's an Indian parked around back.
    :rolleyes:

    I wonder if the cops back then still sat outside Biggs writing speeding tickets. Always slow down 5 miles before and 5 miles after.
