Dover Street looking west from Harrison Street. 1939. This beautiful H. Robins Hollyday Collection photo shows lots of interesting detail. Hill’s Drug Store is visible where Bannings is now. There is a Ford sign up on what is now Hill’s. Look at Lee’s Pharmacy, wonder when that disappeared??Just googled the Avalon’s movie “The Great Victor Herbert “and learned it was a 1939 Romance/ biography about the legendary composer Victor Herbert starring Mary Martin, Allan Jones, Walter Connolly. The Music Hall which is now part of the Court House completes the beauty.
Thanks to one of our followers who loved the framed enlargement of this photo that is hanging in the Avalon Lobby and requested the photo! Contact: Cathy Hill [email protected] to share your old photos. Comment, Like our page and join THS!
