oh MY RAREST OF RARE IMAGES!
1. This is corner of STH 83 and the truck is westbound on CTH C. This is Blackie's DEEP ROCK Gas and Service station but today2016 it is Political Corner. When there is an election, signs appear. People first need to ask for permission!
2. The house that was at one time in the parking lot of Spring Valley Country Club--gone in 1996 1997. This building was, early in the days when Liberty Corners was thriving as a large Town of Salem hamlet, a resting point for travelers, post office and restaurant/tavern. When rail arrived in Trevor and in Salem, Liberty ceased to be important. There are plans for this area to be a rotary/roundabout.
3. Spears family farm at the top right. The stop sign and medians are interesting. There is today, 4 way stoplight.

The gas station is on the NORTHWESTRLY corner of the intersection.

I worked at Blackie’s in late 60’s and early 70’s. He and his wife Eloise we good people
