Nice picture but I see both odd and even numbers ending the license plates. Up here the odd numbers could get gas one day and the even the next. If you had letters on the end it was a-c-e &etc one day and b-d-f & etc the next. My best friend was selling gas then and it almost drove him crazy as people would want to fight regardless of their license number, so he just called the police and they had a cop sit there while he was open to make sure no one forced their way in. Then shortly after that he called the gas company to come pump his tanks and he took out the pumps and quit the gas business and just keeps the garage open now. And believe it or not, for over a month after he did that he still had people come in wanting to know if they could get gas and there were no pumps at all on the islands, just the holes where the gas lines had come up to them.
