Description

Photograph of a man standing near a large tree in front of a Union Ethel Gasoline building, [s.d]. A large tree with a short, thick stump stands in the center with lush foliage that hangs down to create a soft look while forming a shadow on the ground below. A pile of dismantled parts can be seen to the left of the tree. A man stands to the right of the tree while what appears to be a covered automobile can be seen behind him. One of the signs on the building reads "Aristo[...] Motor Oil".
