I thought I would bring this thread back and update my oil company holiday additions from the last year. Not too many, but I think they're fun additions to a collection.
First is a Marathon card that doesn't get any more retro than this...the car, the font, etc.
The other is a Hi-Speed card from 1941. I googled the intersection of Outer Drive and Burt in Detroit and the station is still there surprisingly, living on as a repair shop. This card was a surprise in a lot of old Christmas cards I bought at a local antique shop. I didn't know it was in there until I was sorting them.
Well Darin, being from southeast Michigan the curiosity got the best of me so I had to check out the Hi Speed station on Google Maps.
According to the street, it looks like they still like their cars! LOL.
Very cool station. There are a lot of them left in Detroit.
