Wow, an airplane for a gas station. I wonder if that had any resonance with people in LA who remembered that there was an airfield right down the street (at Fairfax and Wilshire) not more than 20 years earlier.

The building that you can see in the upper right-hand corner is still there, too. You can see if on Google Maps Streetview if you put in the address and go up Cochran a little bit. The site of the gas station itself is a large, Modernist structure (revamped from its original colors and stuff, but still Modernist).
