Country Store on a Dirt Road Doubles as a Gas Station
This photo was taken in 1939 and it depicts an old country store in Gordonton, North Carolina. At a second glance, it’s easy to notice the kerosene pump on the right and the gasoline pump on the left, meaning that this was a location where people filled up their cars and other appliances with fuel. The man standing in the doorway is the brother of the man who owned the store.
