Visible Gas Pump in Birch Tree, Missouri

by John Margolies

Take a step back in time to the Golden Age of the American road trip with this classic piece of roadside art in the form of an authentic photo print featuring a rare example of the classic Visible Gas Pump in Birch Tree, Missouri, captured by architectural photographer John Margolies. Best known for capturing the unique and nostalgic vernacular architecture of mid-20th century America, Margolies draws attention to the specific glass cylinder "gravity-feed" design that characterizes early 20th century gas station designs in rural Missouri and the Ozarks. Including authentic faded signs, vintage window display, and an old weathered pump handle, this photograph is a quintessential piece of vintage Americana.

Whether decorating your vintage automobile themed room, Ozark historical collection, or general vintage Americana room, this unique photograph will surely complement your interior with its historic feel and bright retro colors.
