From two brothers and a cousin, here are heart-warming entries about living out of our grandparents' basement. We've finally decided to start sharing stories made hilarious by generation differences and expired food. And, throughout most of these entries, there will be a constant theme. That theme is that Fox News was on.
"Dates are approximate, as I checked city directories, and we are missing some. Lubin's Pharmacy first appears in the 1936 city directory (we don't own 1935) at 118 E. Washington, and stayed there thru at least 1954. By the 1956 city directory, Lubins had moved to 132. S Clinton. It last appears in the 1969 city directory."
I've been trying to date this... but failing
ReplyDelete118 E. Washington is now Bo James. But I can't find any dates about when Lubin's Pharmacy was there!
I'm on this..... the public library has an "ask a librarian" email deal, there will be an answer coming soon.
ReplyDeleteOH GOD OH GOD OH GOD

Whoa! That's nuts! Nice sleuthing, by the way.
ReplyDeleteI realized that means that bottle of poison is probably older than both of my parents, and both of yours.
