Postcard from the 1940s. The McClure Hotel is on the right (with the awnings), and the Schulmbach Building is the tall yellowish one. The Pugh store is where the Victoria Theater is, but where is the Victoria Theater?

From Chuck Julian postcard collection, dated 1907. Note the addition of the awnings which were still present in the 1940s postcard above. The modern facelift is not exactly ugly, but it doesn't fit in this historic block. McClure website
