EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of history from the 20th century - an old gas pump inside the Route 66 State Park Visitor Center in Missouri, USA. The aged crystal glass of the pump reflects a bygone era when Texaco was a prominent name in the American gasoline industry. As you gaze at this image, you can almost hear the hum of cars pulling up to fuel up on their journey along Route 66. The dispenser hose and scale are reminders of a simpler time when road trips were filled with excitement and adventure. The juxtaposition of the modern visitor center with this vintage gas pump creates a sense of nostalgia for days gone by. It serves as a reminder of how far we've come in terms of technology and convenience in our daily lives. This photograph is not just a snapshot in time; it's a window into America's past and its love affair with automobiles. It speaks to our fascination with exploration and discovery, as well as our reliance on fossil fuels for transportation. Whether you're a history buff or simply appreciate beautiful photography, this print is sure to spark conversations about the evolution of travel and industry in the United States.
