Arizona Road Trip: Lowell
This is one of my favorite photos from my short visit to Lowell Arizona. The classic Texaco station combined with the aging walls and doors make a perfect spot to photograph.
I can remember the old advertising jingle, "You can trust your car to the man who wears the star. The big, bright Texaco staaaaaaaar."
The Texaco gas station attendants used to wear white uniforms with a little white folding hat. I haven't seen a gas station attendant in years, and one wearing a uniform would be inconceivable today.
This is a wonderful reflection of nostalgia. Love it!
ReplyDeleteI just love both shots! The fantastic yellow taxi should be parked next to the red pumps. :-)
ReplyDeleteBoth of these photos are classics.

I can definitely see where this would be a favorite photo. Love the name of the cab company. :)
