A super well preserved Sinclair station. So nice to see it relatively unmuddled.
Found this info for ya...
"Built in Exeter, Nebraska by Charles C. Smith in 1936. The business was leased to Donald and Lillian Johns who operated the station for five years. Mrs. Johns also operated a cafe in the station during that time.
Armin and Ruth Bender purchased the station in 1941 and operated the business for 31 years. The station was also a Bus Depot for the Continental Trailways bus company. Armin and Ruth retired in 1972."
Here's a photo of the place back in 1949, and an old matchbook.

The Sinclair ZX81 was a home computer released in 1981 by Sinclair Research. It was the follow-up to the Sinclair ZX80.
The machine's distinctive appearance was the work of industrial designer Rick Dickinson. Video output, as in the ZX80, was to a television set, and saving and loading programs was via an ordinary home audio tape recorder to audio cassette. Like its predecessor it used a membrane keyboard.
Timex Corporation manufactured kits as well as assembled machines for Sinclair Research. In the United States a version with double the RAM and an NTSC television standard was marketed as the Timex Sinclair 1000.
As with the ZX80, the processor was a NEC Zilog Z80-compatible,[1] running at a clock rate of 3.25 MHz, but the system ROM had grown to 8192 bytes in size, and the BASIC now supported floating point arithmetic[2]. It was an adaptation of the ZX80 ROM by Steve Vickers on contract from Nine Tiles Ltd, the authors of Sinclair BASIC. The new ROM also worked in the ZX80 and Sinclair offered it as an upgrade for the older ZX80 for a while.
The base system as supplied had 1 KB (KB) of RAM. This RAM was used to hold the computer's system variables, the screen image, and any programs and data. The screen was text only, 32 characters wide by 24 high. Blocky graphics with a resolution of 64 by 48 pixels were possible by the use of the PLOT command, which selected among a set of 16 graphics characters.[3] The ZX81 uses a resizable display-file (screen buffer) meaning that it can be expanded or shrunk depending on the amount of installed memory and the amount of free space at the moment.
The ZX81 was originally sold via mail order in kit form requiring soldering [2] (priced at £49.95) or assembled (£69.95 or US$100 in the US). A later deal with high street retail W.H.Smith saw the ZX81 and all accessories being sold on the high street (ZX81 was £69.99, ZX 16K RAM pack £49.99, ZX Printer £49.99)

Wilmer's Log House Inn - The Wilmer house was located north in the valley in Sinclair now called Radium Hot Springs. The original builder of this imposing log home was a hard drinking, rifle toting, gambling man who settled down in the valley after arriving from the United States in the late 1800's. It is here that John McCullough married his bride Jane when they were in their 50's and built his legacy. Where the Canyon RV Resort & Campground is now situated in Radium Hot Springs, the McCullough's ran a farm and hotel for travelers known as "Stopping House No. 68" (being 68 miles from Golden) or as was painted on the front of the structure, "The Log House Inn". In time Jane's niece Amy Lockwood, who left an unhappy marriage and moved in to the "The Log House Inn" along with her stepson Henry Foster Lockwood, joined them. Amy later inherited the property from her Aunt Jane. Amy Lockwood owned the property until 1957 and passed away in 1983.
