San Luis Obispo County Tribune
Here’s a nice discovery: David Middlecamp at the San Luis Obispo County Tribune has been putting together a history blog, Photos From the Vault. Here’s a cropped version of a 1959 photo showing a gas station at 1371 Monterery. The 1959 price for ethyl, 34 cents a gallon, is $2.39 in 2007 dollars.
