Description
PAC has the distinct honor of offering the final chapter of the Ralph Castle service station to the community.
Since 1950 the Ralph Castle neon sign has been a pillar of Main St. Longmont. Though it hasn't been aglow for many decades this sign is sure to catch the eye and it's the faces that light up when you say the name. Shut down in the late 90's this building has sat as a time capsule for the decades before it and we have the privilege of showcasing the contents to you now.
The travel center information station that faces main street, McCaskey oil and gas register that sat next to it. Alemite lubing station, Champion spark plug cleaner, Bear tire balancers, Polarine lubesters, wall mount cigarette machine and candy dispenser, even the desk that sat right inside the front door of the shop.
There is also mid century paper advertising that you will never find again, counter top displays, porcelain signs, new old stock car parts, tools, jacks, old stock tires, and so much more.
