The history was stunning and so enjoyable, I lived there in the seventies and never knew about this history only the Pony Express, Jesse James.

I was wondering if there is anything on a "dram shop" at 1720 Messanie, around 1910?

I'm interested to know if there are any signs for
"Dawson Brothers Grocery" 1903 to 1952?

Thanks so much for this. I’ve wondered so often where classmates are and if still living. I’ll be 81 next month, so my name will probably be here before long, but I hope not!

Rick,

In his book “Harpo Speaks”, Harpo Marx claims to have had his first “harp lesson” in front of Woolworth’s in St. Joseph:

“On the way from the theater (presumably the Missouri Theater) to the pool room I stopped in my tracks when I saw a display in a ten-cent-store window. In the middle of the display was a framed picture of an angel, sitting on a cloud and playing a harp. What stopped me was the fact that the angel in the picture had the harp leaning against her right, not her left shoulder. Since nobody had ever told me otherwise, I had been playing with mine against the wrong shoulder.

This was my first harp lesson. I switched the instrument to the other side, the right side, and felt a lot more professional. Belated thanks, F.W. Woolworth, for the tip.”

So I was very interested to see the photos of Kresge-Woolworth at 609-611 Felix. Thanks!

This is such a wonderful site that shows the passion, dedication, and endless hours to display. As a near 70 year old native from St. Joseph every time I look at it fond memories of my home town returns.

My great uncle, Alfred Trachsel, was a partner in Trachsel Motor Company. I recently found a 1951 Company Calendar at an estate sale. Your site yielded more information about their business. thanks!
