OK, I know it’s just a comic strip, but …. you historians out there: Is Gasoline Alley the main street of an old downtown? Would people be walking by a shop like this, or would they drive to it as a destination? If this were a slice-of-life (as advertised), would any sane person open up a joint like this thinking that guys waiting for their brakes to be adjusted would kill time in?
At least no one is being hip-mo-tized in this story.
