How about a gas station at Belk? This is a photo from the "Belko" service station at Belk, Parkhill Mall, Tarboro, North Carolina, circa 1975. You could even use your Belk/Leggett charge to fill your gas tank. (Pat Richardson)

Hard to read on the pump, but gas was 29 cents when this picture was taken.
ReplyDeleteYou'd need 29 cent gas to fill up a Polara ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis proves that the current trend to have store serving their own brand of gas with their own gas station,is not that new as it seems to be.
ReplyDeleteYep, back in the day everybody had gas: JCPenney, Sears, Wards; I think even Kmart did in some locations.
