1911: RIKER'S DRUG STORE

I posted the photo below on this website many months ago and it has since been appearing here and there around the internet.However, the article I attached to that photo tells the interesting story of the Riker company who had similar super stores in other cities. Every time I look at that beautiful fountain, images of Victorian splendor come to mind. Perhaps a lovely Judy Garland hopping off that trolley with Tom Drake to partake in an ice cream soda with two straws! What an imagination!
