This former Flying A service station has been preserved, although nothing really has been done with it - just sitting empty on the corner of Shamrock and Walnut Streets in Monrovia, California. It must have many stories to tell. . . .

Despite being widely photographed, there seems to be no information about its former history or who is preserving it now.
