"Atlantic City" - Tokheim 850 and you can see the dial spinning.
"They Drive by Night" - old Bogart B&W
"The Postman Always Rings Twice" - Shell pumps and signage and Jack Nicholson ravaging the station owners wife.
"Back to the Future" - classic Texaco
Speaking of movies, what happened to Hollywood Knights? I want to see it again!

Hollywood knigts is out on dvd cant remeber any pumps but had some cool cars. Like the way the 57 leaves the stop light, They blew it up twice durring filming. Watch the drag race scene and you hear him miss a shift and watch all the water hit the ground. One of my alltime fav movies. Brandon

"Bad Day at Black Rock" (I think) with Spencer Tracy. Shows a couple of scenes of visible pumps and in one, a townsperson is filling his car.
Then there are several Three Stooges shorts with gas station themes.

I haven't seen the movie "Tucker" but I think it would have some good scenes.
Tom, I'll have to get HK from you if I can't find it on DVD.

DON, I NEVER SAW GAS PUMP GIRLS BACK IN '76-'77+??? BUT I KNOW OF THE MOVIE SINCE GAS PUMP SEARCHES ON EBAY WILL BRING UP RELATED ITEMS SUCH AS POSTERS AND LOBBY CARDS. AS FAR AS ACTUALLY SEEING THE MOVIE FOR SALE (VHS FO ME ONLY) I HAVE NOT, BUT THEN AGAIN I HAVEN'T BEEN LOOKING FOR IT....ALWAYS LOOKED LIKE SOFT PORN?

You West coast guys should watch the Original...Invasion of the Body Snatchers..I believe there are glimpses of Signal & Richfied stations. In one episode of the Captain Marvel Serial..the original.. there is a nice shot of 2 Flying A pumps with great globes. And, there is a 3 Stooges short with them as gas station operators with a couple of Tok. 36b's in view. Yes, I'm old!! lol
