1939, Agate,_Nebraska. General store and gas station. Darn near in Wyoming, known for fossils and agate mining, I didnt see any evidence today of any semblance of a "downtown", and little evidence of Google street views..
I would concluded a place like this is LONG gone.
UPDATE: Asserted to still be there (remnants at least, with gas pump still there, but not much else): On 29, in in city of Harrison (there is a city there(, 20 miles north.

The two black and white pictures are of the same location.
The station in the color picture was there in 1957, no earlier aerials.
