Earl Stroyer Oldsmobile Cadillac LaSalle Schuylkill Haven PA

            Automobile dealerships were very different in the past.  It was common to have gas pumps and this photo shows a nice variety of them.

Earl Stroyer appears to have been primarily an Oldsmobile dealer but if you wanted luxury Cadillacs and LaSalles were available.  What appear to be a pair of 1939 Olds are visible inside (please let me know if I have identified these correctly).

Outside there are neon signs for "Oldsmobile General Motors" and you can see just a bit of the "Cadillac LaSalle" sign.  A porcelain Olds sign is at the far end of the building along with signs for U.S. Tires.

Starting on the left the gas pumps are for: Atlantic; Atlantic; a rare display case pump for Gulf No-Nox; Good Gulf; Tydol with Ethyl in a different style display case pump; and Tydol.  There are two air fillers beyond the pumps.
