Coonen's In Color

 


I'm not sure where I obtained these photos (they may have been featured in a Facebook group) so credit goes to that person.  But they make smile, because this gas station was in the background of countless home movies and photos taken out in my back yard at Second and Depere and I don't think I've seen it featured in photos in color before these.  What a time capsule...from the vintage cars to the gas for 34 cents a gallon.  A car wash for 35 cents?!  Unbelievable!  We first discussed this gas station in 2013:  https://menashabook.blogspot.com/2013/08/coonens-complete-service.html.  They don't make 'em like this anymore.
