Description

Approx. 8" x 10" black and white photograph. Text on back says "Rawlins - Corner 12th and Spruce looking SW; Sheahan's Drive In. Gas station and motel - became a Chevron owned by Leroy Johnson." The picture shows a white building with dark-framed windows that says Sheahan's and has a Cocacola sign and 7-Up truck behind/to the left and an old pickup truck in front of it. A smaller white building that says RPM on the side is to the left of Sheahan's, and Calso Gasoline, complete with two pumps, is to the right of that. Calso is a two-storied building with multiple "Galso Gasoline" signs, as well as a sign for "Calso Tourist Home". Behind the buildings are scrub-covered hills. Donor believes photo was taken around 1940.
