Isn't that in Akron Mike? Looks like it was close to where I-76 is just east of rt 8. The Sohio shot reminds me of W150th and Brookpark in Cleveland before I-480. Think its a U-haul now.

Here's a great article about a man who ran a station in Maine for decades.
His memories about a simpler time are priceless.
