Wall of History



A couple of weeks ago I wrote on the reopening of Camp Hopson Department store an of the restaurant being refurbished. As you walked into the old restaurant you bassed a display cabinet with old newspaper clippings about the store going back to when it first opend and some of the recepts from that time. When the restaurant reopend the cabenet was gone but on one wall was a huge mural with enlaged clippings from the cabinet for you to read on a wall of history



Photos from different eras

    I'm always fascinated by newspaper layouts from back in the day. So different from today. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
