Last week Annie Arnold
was kind enough to send in photos and information about
Spud’s 75th Anniversary. I asked her if she had any further photos and she promptly sent these over.
I particularly like the exterior shot from 1945 — what a fantastic, clean design.
Love the lettering on the building, too. I asked Annie about the building since I didn’t really recongize it and she said that it has gone through three iterations through the years and unfortunately none of
the original garage is still in place. Click for higher res.

What wonderful photos. And the first one is stunning.
I love me some Spuds!!!!
These are really great pics – agreed – the first one is incredible!
I also enjoy seeing Almira Gulch sitting at the counter!
The first (night) photo is awesome!! The Chevy is a nice period touch, too…
