Last Shell Oil Clamshell Station

Winston-Salem, NC

This restored 1930s service station is literally shaped like a giant yellow scallop shell. Quality Oil built several shell-shaped stations as advertising, but the Sprague Street building is the only surviving example and is now preserved as an architectural roadside oddity.
