A walk downtown in 1967
For viewers who don't have a look back memory to 1967, this is a very unfamiliar Bluffton scene.
It is, in fact, South Main Street, Bluffton. Dick Boehr took the photo on Sept. 1, 1968.
Here's the view:
• Far right, Citizens National Bank in a remodeling phase (not the current brick one, but one prior to it).
• Center, Millager's Pharmacy. Millager's eventually became the site of CNB expansion.
• Far left, West Ohio Gas Company. It, too, eventually became the site of CNB expansion.
Check out the vehicles on Main Street. The closest vehicle has an antenna. Question: Why an antenna? Answer: AM radio.
The car with the 540 YZ plate is a Bluffton plate in a former license plate number and letter system. Looks like a Steiner Motors (Pandora) Dodge Dart in front of Millager's.
Look closely at the green car in front of the bank (far right). Is it an early 1950s model Ford?
