The old Stone Corner on E. Bremer at 1st (southeast lot). Looking southeast. Typewriter written on front, "Compliments of The Waverly Savings Bank Photograph by F.W. Mueller" Typewriter written on back, "Isn’t this a fine photograph ? We know you will want to preserve it. This Old Lime Stone building, built in 1854 was at that time Waverly's most modern structure. Today a New Building occupies this site. Later you will receive a Photograph of this new building. You will want to preserve that also. The Waverly Savings Bank Be Photographed as you are today, Tomorrow may be too late.” “MUELLERS STUDIO Waverly, Ia. West Side" Stamped in back, “JOHN E. MEYER 1407 CEDAR RIVER DRIVE WAVERLY, IOWA 50677.”
100 East Bremer- Stone building built in 18541914-1915 the current building was built Waverly Savings Bank/1st National Bank was built.
C E Hanson purchased office from Dr. Spencer
C E Hanson started above Levy Clothier/ That was at 101 East Bremer. (Fish Magnavox Store) He at some point moved across Bremer ave to this building 100 East Bremer.
In 1905 him and his family moved to Utah to continue dentistry. So this pic should be before 1905
C E Hanson sold to John P Gable in 1905. Gable stayed until around 1907 to give up dentistry to take up farming in Texas
Earl Dickinson Realty started at Dickinson Sundermeir Realty- That was dissolved in 1904
It appears Earl Dickinson stayed in this building. He is later listed at 101 East Water Street in 1909. Earl and his wife moved to Madison Wisconsin Oct 20th 1915
I'd date this at 1905C - Nick McCumber 04-19-24
