Description

Commercial buildings on north side of Center center street after a snow. The building with "Soft Drinks" printed on the rolled-up awning is the Wiegert Model Grocery at 8 W. Center St. This image was featured as History Mystery #51 with the question "Douglas, some 75 years ago you could pick up your mail and groceries right here. Where is this?" and the answer "The corner of Center and Main - the building on the right was the Wiegert Grocery - the same building houses Chaps Restaurant today. Next door was the post office."
