    they even graffittied them …......... why are they still there though …........

  • reflector replied

    It’s either a deceased estate with a technical hassle that’s preventing it’s sale, or someone is ” sitting ” on their investment waiting for years before they cash in. They’re in great condition compared to the garage shed and house next door !

    And probably 40c litre!

  • reflector replied

    There’s a close up of the one on the left in my Gallery called ” Crusty Petrol Pump ” and it says 72 cents per litre. That would mean it closed in the mid 1990’s wouldn’t it ? Thanks for visiting, Murray.

    We have some old gas stations out on the parairie that they still use. It took me a while to learn how to use them again. A great nostalgic picture.

  • reflector replied

    Judging from the price, I think this one closed in the first couple of years of the 1990’s. I’ve driven past this heaps of times, but photography made me pay a visit to see what I could find. Thanks Lori !

    hard to believe that these were real and used in the past

    this yesteryear almost looks like a caricature of the old service station

  • reflector replied

    I used those pumps decades ago, but not at this spot ! There are filters and a few colour tweaks to change the look of the scene. Thanks for looking, bfrida !

  • reflector replied

    Thanks MT ! It’s very run down, but it was a good photo playground at this spot. Did you see the sepia close-up called ” Crusty Petrol Pump ” ?

    Great capture Reflector.

  • reflector replied

    Thanks Kabranty ! It’s a pile of junk in reality, but it did remind me of lots of things including much cheaper Petrol. Thanks for the Fav !

    Great shot, love it!

  • reflector replied

    Thanks betha ! If it fits in front of a camera and I like it, it’s fair game for a shot or two.

  • reflector replied

    It really does ! I couldn’t look at these pumps without thinking back to the 1980’s and earlier ! Thanks !
