Description

View of American auto garage with several trucks parked awaiting services at 377 River St, Montpelier, Vermont. One truck is decaled with "Vt. Mobile Home Service/Parts-Service" and the phone number. There are also signs for Atlas Tires and Quaker State Motor Oil. A repairman stands on a ladder leaning against the front of the building, while another person can be seen adjusting a freestanding American sign. There is a father and young child chatting with a motorist, and two more people waiting outside their trucks. One person is looking in the direction of the photographer. Although it has been altered significantly, this building is still a gas station and convenience store.
