Letter: More on the Pure Oil station photo posted recently

Posted by Fred Steiner on July 22, 2015 - 3:59pm

Icon viewers:

Thanks Fred for sharing the photo of the Pure Oil station at Main and Elm with the old Marathon station in the background. 

By 1965, I thought that the Pure station was run by Bob Renner. That station ultimately closed and was replaced with a new Union 76 (successor to Pure Oil) station at the corner of Main and Jefferson, where Stratton's car business is now.
