Visible Pumps and the American Dream. Petroliana Vintage Photograph

A photo of the American Dream. Note on the reverse indicates this is “Mother, Dad and Kay”. No location, but somewhere between places. Cities Service Oil Company started in 1910 and became Citgo around 1980. The gas pumps are a type known as “Visible” pumps which were the standard around 1927 until the late 40s. Mom made the sandwiches and I presume Kay added the blue. Original photograph c. 1930. Collection Jim Linderman / Dull Tool Dim Bulb #gas. #petroleum. #petroliana. #dulltooldimbulb. #vintagephoto. #Visablepump
