brick street, car, coca cola sign, 7up sign. Maxfield Tavern. "Drink Coca-Cola" "Coca-Cola, take some home today." "Billiards." "7-Up" logo.
Looking east and slightly north from 1st St SE at the backside of the buildings on E. Bremer between 1st and 2nd Street. The photo is pre 1955 because the large building behind the tree is the Fortner Hotel and it was razed in 1955. The site the men are working on had been the location of a gas station called Gasoline Alley. Later it became the site of the 1st National Bank drive-up.
This photo along with many others was made from negatives in the newspaper archives which were donated to the Waverly Public Library.
