Full title:The Sierra Co-Op Service, a Pasadena service station and garage at 250 Mary Street, Pasadena, is operated by John
Oshima and Joe Nawa. Joe, who relocated recently in Pasadena after first going from Rohwer to Chicago and Detroit in 1943,
is shown giving pre-war service to the windshield of the customer's car. Johnny is collecting the necessary A coupons. Johnny
was never in a center, having lived in Los Angeles and moved to Idaho before the evacuation order. He is reporting for active
Army duty this June. Joe formerly lived in Norwalk, California. The Sierra Co-Op is part of a nation-wide cooperative movement,
and this service station is one of the two Sierra Co-Op retail outlets in Pasadena. Johnny and Joe are both enthusiastic about
the Co-Op movement.<lb/> Photographer: Mace, Charles E.<lb/> Pasadena, California.
