"Bill's Tower, Bill's Place, Pa. Top of Rays Hill. Elev. 1958'."
Bill Place, a roadside stop and service station along the Lincoln Highway (U.S Route 30) in south central Pennsylvania, was situated on Rays Hill at an elevation of 1,958 feet. Bill's Tower, as seen here in this real photo postcard, provided a 40-mile view of the surrounding area. Bill's Old Backhouse , the outhouse at Bill's Place, was also featured on a postcard (see below).

A photo of buildings in the garden/backyard (sheds, summer houses, pigeon coops, etc.) for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.
"Bill's Old Backhouse" was the men's outhouse located in the backyard at Bill's Place, which was a roadside stop and service station along the Lincoln Highway (U.S Route 30) in south central Pennsylvania. Bill's Place was situated on Rays Hill at an elevation of 1,958 feet, and travelers who stopped there could climb a tower for a 40-mile view out over the surrounding area (or they could drive a little farther west on the Lincoln Highway to see the view from the Grand View Ship Hotel instead).
For another outhouse featured on a real photo postcard, see Mr. Santa Claus Outhouse, Santa Claus, Arizona :
