This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

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
