Various items are on display or on the walls, including cards and Pennsylvania Dutch Of Fashioned Licorice in a barrel and in packages. The store is at the end of Main Street on the Front Street, Penn Cove side. On the back: July 30, 1972, Mickey Becker, Holace Perry "Old Town Shop", Coupeville, WN. (A blue 4 is in a circle.)
(Is the name Holace or Hollis?)
PNRO, page 163: built in 1890 for F. Puget Race Drug Store. Lower part a shoe store. Drug store later rented as an apartment. In the 1960s it became the Old Town Shop.
At some point it became Aqua (continues in 2019). Apparently there is a rental apartment on the lower floor.
Per the Arcadia Coupeville book, page 120: In 1909 F. P. Race built the first telephone office between his drug store and the Sedge building (ICHS). Per PNRO, page 162 - the exchange from 1900 to the 1930s.
