I have 100s of pics of stations, but need more info, than you supplied.

Approx. what era?
What oil company"

The late Earl Ma wrote an article (for CTO mag.) on what remember to be very modern (1950s) Conoco?? stations, I was the one that supplied him with almost all the pictures he used.

Over here in Sweden and Norway, possibly in the rest of Europe, Caltex had the "Circle Service" concept with 5 different things an attendant would do. Could this be be related to Texaco?
