Description
Esso gas station at 1-3 Maine Street, Bridgton, ca. 1938. Charles E. Thompson was the owner at the time of the survey.
The card was updated at an unknown time with the addition of the name Aldrich Realty, Norway, Maine.
The card references a deed dated 1926, but this is not the date of the photograph. Signs on the building also say "Hilltop Hudson Terraplane" and "International Terraplane," and "International Hudson," referring to brands of motor vehicles sold and serviced. There is a poster from the State Theater in the corner of the window. The current address (2016) is 7 Main Street.
