Fire Chief Hat Dog in Barstow, California

by John Margolies

Step back into history with this gorgeous John Margolies photo showing the famous giant Texaco Fire Chief hat structure from Barstow, California. Shot by Margolies as part of his celebrated series of photographs documenting American roadside architecture in the 20th century, this print includes a tiny gas station booth with an oversized red sculpted fire hat with the eagle logo—a perfect example of mimetic programmatic architecture meant to attract attention of drivers traveling through Mojave Desert on Route 66.

With the crisp blue desert sky and vintage gas station branding logos, this wall art will add retro pop-art flavor to any interior space.
