This is a photo from the Sayers Gas station back in 1954 across from what is today the Main Street Dairy Queen and a city owned parking lot. Anyone recall this or who is pictured? Please feel free to comment below.

This photo from decades ago shows the intersection of Main Street and Pike Street in Clarksburg with a prominent advertistement of the Ellis Drive In shown. Below it, on the far right, it talks about the restaurant being air conditioned, which was a big deal at the time.
