nice pic (as always)!
I'm wondering if this was a commercial station or part of a business...

Pat, those pumps are 50's ear pumps, and if I remember correctly "filling stations" (as we called them back then in East Texas) were always small two pump afairs. Obviously the structure behind these pumps has been rehab'd. One of those pumps may still be supplying that farmer's tractor.
