Need a TV or radio repaired, or purchased?
Decades before John Wagner became Bluffton's Nationwide agent, a radio and television retail and repair store was located at 105 N. Main Street. It was Beach Radio Television, owned by Oliver Beach.
To help date the photo is a 1950 or 1951 Dodge parking in front of the doorway.
To the left of you can read the "EWS" of "The Bluffton News" located at 103 N. Main St. at the time. To the right (today it's Family Eye Care) was Hankish's Confectionary.
