Gas Shortage in 1920


From the Nay 13, 2020, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1920, 100 Years Ago.

"Another filling station is out of gasoline.  Sawyer & Sons reached the limit this morning and at the present time, the only place in town that has gas is the independent oil filling station.

"The Standard is all out and has been for the past four days.  Both it and Sawyers are expecting a car, but because of the uncertainty of the railroads, do not know when  it will arrive."

Gas Shortages?  Back then?  Didn't Know there Were That Many Cars.  --CootGas
