1925 Gas Station Gasoline Pump Sign Standard Oil Washington Mount Pleasant
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1925, capturing a snapshot of an Amoco gas station located at the intersection of 14th and Belmont streets in Mount Pleasant, Washington, D. C. The vintage charm is evident as we observe the early architecture and design of this bustling establishment. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the sign on the roof that proudly displays "Toot-An-Kum-In" a clever play on words inspired by ancient pharaohs. This witty choice adds a touch of humor to an otherwise ordinary gas station scene. Intriguingly, this photograph provides us with a glimpse into American history during a time when cars were becoming more prevalent in society. The presence of classic automobiles parked near the pumps reminds us how far transportation has come since then. It's fascinating to see how Standard Oil's Amoco brand was already making its mark on communities across America even in those early days. However, it's important to note that this particular image does not depict any commercial use; instead, it serves as a historical documentation. Overall, this print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty and cultural significance of this iconic Amoco gas station in Mount Pleasant, Washington D. C. , frozen in time for generations to come.
