1960 Naples Gas Price 34 Cents A Gallon


I found this in a Lake Park home today. Could have spun to Fo Myay & cruised the pier a couple dozen times at these prices. Anyone know Edith A. Hill?

Heading Into Town A Greaser's View...

A good shot of Cris-tal's Market not to mention the Rambler dealership.

Telephone Company 5th Ave South

Notice all of the out of state telephone books are gone...and that strange thing hanging from one of the lights is too...

Original Swamp Buggy Track & Naples Speedway

Marty emailed me & noted in the photo that the motocross track was overlaid across the stock car track I guess I'm getting blind in my old age I didn't even notice it.

Trailways Bus Station & Water Tower

Sad thing about this area is they just leveled the parking lot behind the bus station to make way for a parking garage. I remember seeing either the Jesters or the Banana Factory playing in that parking lot back in the 60's.

3rd Street & Broad Ave In Color

Taken from Cook's Laundry, judging from the photo it looks like the wrecking ball is there to do in the Beach Store.

Don't Panic It's Not Too Late!

Emily is still taking registrations, I don't know the cutoff day to the hotel reservations either. Keep in mind I'm just the dumb ass that runs the blog. Does this job have a 401K plan? Do I get medical or dental? Sure would be nice to have uniforms, is there a blog union.........

Wonder if I can get my wife & our 18 children covered under one of these plans.......
You know I can't even steal office supplies how'd I get roped into this?

3rd Street South Gulf Station

This gas station was located at the corner of 12th Ave South & 3rd Street South.
Some people don't remember it there was a guy that worked there that I'm told wore a basket for a hat. Don't ask me I've heard this from a couple people I don't remember him but the story is true I've heard it a couple of times from very reliable sources. It's now a bar called Hansome Harry's.
