Description
Photograph of an exterior view of "Ragsdale & Hansen's $ Station No. 1", a gas station which advertises wholesale and retail, ca.1920-1929. 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 title directly below it. A fence stands behind the station containing the trees just behind it. A house can be seen through the thick trees on the left. Donated by Jim Stone.
