Gas Station Changes

Pure Oil gasoline stations were among some of the earliest located in Grove City. Arthur Brink’s station was known as the Owl’s Nest and he always had his dog with him at work. Virgil Bethard may have taken over that station on Broadway in 1937 switching from Pure to Sunoco Oil and Gasoline. Before that in 1932, Bill Neiswender had a Linco (Lincoln Oil and Refining Co.) station also on Broadway at Columbus Street.
