Save Way Gas in Amarillo, Texas

by John Margolies

Jump right back to the Panhandle culture of the 1970s through John Margolies’ renowned image of Save Way Gas from 1977, taken in Amarillo, Texas. Known as someone who spent four decades documenting the eye-catching fonts, eccentric architecture, and lively pop art that defined highway travel in the middle decades of the 20th century, Margolies documented the spirit of everyday life on Route 66 and in small-town America. With its sharp vintage signs and classic gas pumps, this photograph will bring a little bit of the Texas Panhandle to you!

Great for fans of mid-century design!
