It's the Habegger station on North Main Street, circa 1932
Here's the Habegger’s filling station on North Main Street, across from what is now the Chinese restaurant.
Richard Jordan sent this classic photo to The Icon.
According to Rudi Steiner, the car under the canopy is a 1930-31 Model A Ford roadster, The car with the two gentlemen standing against it is a 1932 Plymouth roadster.
Additional observations:
• Richard Jordan: The man in white might be Mary Ann Jordan’s uncle, Myron “Mike” Reichenbach. The question is, “Did the Habegger station ever have a canopy?”
• Look closely at the photos below showing the house behind the 1932 version photo. It the same house that stands there today.
• Tom Dotson of Tommy Tire placed a sign on the building, recognizing the Habegger business.
