The Final Tinseltown Time Machine on Steemit

The Muller family are Hollywood pioneers. Jacob Muller came to Hollywood in 1893, establishing the first meat market in Hollywood. He sold the market in 1907 and established the first ice company in Hollywood.

Jacob Muller's sons built this gasoline station at 6380 Sunset Boulevard in 1920. The automobile at the pump appears to be an Oldsmobile sedan and the gasoline being dispensed seems to be Richfield. The average west coast price for a gallon of gasoline in 1928 was around 21-cents. (1928)
