Union 76, Holbrook, Arizona
1962

A vintage black and white photo of a Union 76 gas station with three gas pumps in the foreground. The iconic orange and blue 76 ball sign is prominently displayed above the station. The building has large windows with signs advertising tires, lubricants, and washing services. Trees are faintly visible in the background, and the sky is clear. The photo appears to be taken during the day and there are no visible people or vehicles.
