Notes
Here’s A.S. Blowers dry goods and grocery store from the 1890s. It was at the NW corner of 3rd and Oak, site of the First National Bank Building today.

Any idea what the large building in the background is? I think it might be the same one as in photo #477.

Interesting that the store front faced Third instead of Oak.

Both the buildings to the west are identified on the Sanborn map as "lodgings".
