Description This resides within a small stone building along Route 66 a bit passed Arcadia, OK. At the moment I cannot remember who it is that owns this building. but when I do get the name I will post it within here.

According to this buildings history, it was a small Fill up station back in the day. At one point in history, Al Capone paid the owner of the station to hide his printing press for $10 dollar bills in a back room that only had one way in and out , a small window about the size of a 40 inch television.

I will be posting photos of this building next.

Nice! Based on your description this would be the Rock O' Ages Station near Luther, Oklahoma.

I love the textures and contrast of this image. The line in the bottom right corner is a little distracting, but aside from that, everything looks good.
