A mystery photo from the early 1960s - where's the fire?
Here's a photo that falls into the "where in Bluffton was this fire?" category.
John Geiser, BHS grad, sent it to us recently. Here's what he says about the photo:
"I ran across some pictures when scanning slides left from my dad that have both my brother and myself puzzled. These were taken in the time frame of '61 to '63.
"My mom is standing in the one but the location is a mystery. I also have a couple pictures of dad's business from that era also. Notice the phone number on the spoon holder (advertising handouts in the late 1950's).
"Just thought you might have some interest in them and you are welcome to use them any way you wish."
We now open this mystery to Icon viewers. That's all we know about the above photo. What's the story?
To view the Paul Geiser spoon, open the attachment at the bottom of this story.
And, if other viewers have photos needing identification, you know the drill...send them to [email protected]. We'll see what we can do.
