These trucks in the Route 66 city of Tulsa, Oklahoma are being loaded with motor oil at the Mid-Continent refinery. This photo has excellent resolution. The photographer was John Vachon in 1942 during World War II. This refinery is still there today, connected to downtown Tulsa by the original Rt 66 bridge on Southwest Blvd, the new Southwest Blvd bridge, the I-244 bridge, and a railroad bridge.
This photo is courtesy of the Library of Congress.


1930s Gulf Gas Station. Likely the owner, the manager, and the employee that does the work.
