Found this old Sunoco gem in Detroit!! Undoubtedly an old Sunoco sunburst station! Not a true then and now, just showing for comparison. But somewhere in time someone took the old showcase façade off the building.

A lot of Standard Oil stations looked like this. There is one in Plainwell, Mi. Has always been Standard Oil. I will have to get a picture of it.

From old pictures I have, these small angular set buildings usually go back a long way. 1930's-20's.
