Primary tabs

1946 photo of the Colonial Petroleum service station at 1030 Broad Street in Grinnell, Iowa. The station has a sign that says "Happy Birthday Iowa" and "Grinnell College 1846-1946" and is decorated with American flags, possibly to celebrate the Fourth of July. There are two men standing in front of the pumps, an older man in a hat and a young man. A sign at right shows the prices for Regular and Ethyl gas.
