My mother worked at P.A. Meyer's for many years. When this picture was taken I might have been upstairs watching my mother sewing suits. It was gutted by a big fire years later. -Ted Gocal
ReplyDeleteI believ 815 State was home to the Red Door, was it not?
ReplyDelete815 was Park's Mens Store. A very good friend of my father owned it. His name was Eddie Cianelli, and my brother worked there.
