DescriptionThis image depicts three individuals using Ejax Oil Stabilizer at one of the various Star Oil Co. locations in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The three people consist of an older man pouring oil into the open hood of a vehicle, a small girl sitting on the edge of the open hood looking straight at the camera, and a younger man standing in one of the garage bays. The man in the garage bay wears an apron which is dirty from car grease and can be seen looking towards the left side of the photograph. Behind the two people nearest the car, the widow of the service station is visible. Various products and signs can be seen through the glass.On View
