On the west side was a mailbox that people would put their mail in, although not official. Henry sold postcards and stamps and would empty the mailbox every night and take the contents to the post office which was in the Masonic building on Washington Street, about 3 blocks north When Sonora had mail delivery they said he couldn't use the marker as a mail recepticle. Central Drug Store in the arrow was neon lighted. Many cars hit the marker when parking.Collection
