They're old gas pumps.


Not only are they old gas pumps, but one is probably at least 20 years 
older than the other.   In automotive terms they are from nearly the 
beginning of time.

I didn't contribute to the PUG this month because, I posted almost all 
of my best ruins as PESOs at one time or another, but I did want to give 
something, so here is a shot from the past.  I've re-titled it to fit

There were quite a few children at this exhibit.  They seemed not to

I remember as a kid, reading in some English Boys' Annual (of some

talking like it was from one end of the earth to the other.  I was
impressed until I realized that it was about 400 miles - about the

  We went for a walk around the grounds of Worcester College, 
 Oxford this morning.  I came upon this in a gateway from the 
 quad into the gardens.  I wonder how long it has been there...

 I love the textures and muted colours.  It does look ancient (by our
 North American standards, anyway).
 
 Lovely composition.
 

I think it's less than 50 years old. At a guess I'd say no earlier than the
1960s, and possibly not even 20 years old. The phrasing and vocabulary, and
the need to tell people not to do that are what suggest it to me.

Well here in North America anything before the disco era is considered
ancient...

After seeing that, makes me want to check my bread a bit more
carefully before eating.  How much magnification is it?  How did you
get to that magnification?

Without a title, I would be hard pressed to figure out just what we
