Amarillo, TX had a bit of a “Wild West” feel to me. We saw tons of ghost signs on our drive through town, including this one, proclaiming On the Spot Financing!

Its a whole ghost building, it looks like it was a gas station when it was built.
I think you’re right. The whole town seemed like very much like this [although we just drove through, so I didn’t really explore Amarillo].
That single column is unusual. Maybe it’s a Texas thing.
Shame they ran out of money…
How true, Linda… WestEnder, I’m no expert in the vernacular architecture of the Texas Panhandle, but this is a cute little building.
Actually, I thought it was ironic that they ran out of money and the sign said “…financing”. 😉
Exactly.
