Petrol Attendant, 14 September 1965 This image, created in 1965, captures the essence of a simpler time as we witness the daily routine of a petrol attendant at a gas station. The petrol attendant, dressed in a smart uniform, is seen diligently filling up a car with gasoline using a long hose. The car, with its classic design and gleaming finish, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The scene is set against the backdrop of a quintessential 1960s petrol station, complete with the iconic red and white checkered flooring and the distinctive petrol pumps. The attendant's expression is focused and attentive as he carefully manages the flow of fuel into the vehicle. Money exchanges hands between the attendant and the driver, symbolizing the transaction that completes the process. This artwork, originally loaned for scanning from the Illustration Art Gallery, offers a glimpse into the past and transports us back to a time when personal service and attention to detail were the norm. The petrol attendant's dedication to his job and the driver's trust in his abilities create a moment of connection between two strangers, highlighting the human element that once defined everyday interactions. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this illustration bring the scene to life, making it a captivating addition to any collection that celebrates the people and experiences of the 1960s.
