The Dairy Mart opened May 22, 1953. It was added to an already existing A&W Root Beer business. It was located on W. Bremer and 10th St. (northeast corner). The root beer stand was eventually turned into a drive-in type establishment. This photo was used for the grand opening ad which advertised milk shakes for 35 cents. Additional photographs and resources can be found at the Waverly Public Library on the local and family history page http://www.waverlyia.com/public-library/research/local-and-family-history-collection.aspx Accession No 91D0021
