Logging Miles with Hank & Orton

Loyal customers of Cuba City's Texaco station received this handy notebook that offered everything from a 1952-1953 calendar to logs for travel, gasoline purchases, oil changes, battery replacements, and tire repairs.

 

 

 

The Texaco station was located on the corner of Main and Benton St. in the building now housing Knead Massage Therapy and Pretty Cut & Dry Salon.

 

Texaco Station, 1952.

 Henry "Hank" Hilvers and Orton Paquette purchased the station in 1951.
