| This former station was built in 1935. It was known as Mac's Super Station and later as Crandall's Super Service. It was a Mobil station at one time. There is still a Mobil plastic disc sign on the side of the building. I don't know what brand was sold here originally. The building now houses Randy's Old Towne Service.
