In 1941 O.E. Carter & Ed Lawson erected a small gas station here and in 1950 they added this cafe building. Only the cafe building stands today. The separate small prefabricated gas station building was located on the right side of the cafe building. It is located just west of the railroad overpass on Route 66 (by grain silos) or Route 66 (Cty. W) east of I-44, exit 118

The words Breakfast Lunch Dinner are very faint but still readable above the windows. The Lebanon Route 66 Association has partnered with the property owner to repaint the building and the ghost signs since these photos were snapped in 2016.
