Gas Pump in Kinsley, Kansas

by John Margolies

Take the highway again in this stunning photo shot by the celebrated architectural photographer John Margolies. Shot in Kinsley, Kansas, the picture shows a typical Wayne gasoline pump that has a sun-worn patina, pink and orange distressed paint job, and a "REGULAR" header sign in red. Margolies had been busy taking photographs for over several decades on the disappearing vernacular architecture of the United States, including its bright colors and worn textures.

The photo is suitable for vintage automotive fans, mid-century design collectors, or rustic American art collectors.
