[0:00] I say a little thank you every time I
[0:02] walk by it because it came from our
[0:04] first building and it was saved notice
[0:06] the anchor on it there's an ad uh from
[0:10] 1947 just after it opens talking about
[0:13] the minaka room and by the way when you
[0:16] walk in the mun in the very front
[0:18] entrance have you ever noticed that the
[0:20] wall is kind of wavy and painted blue
[0:23] well it's wavy because of waves but it's
[0:26] blue in honor of the first mun because
[0:28] the one wall was blue in the first mun
[0:31] so in case you didn't know that kind of
[0:33] another little fun piece
[0:36] right I did find a couple ads that the
[0:38] mun ran toward the end of the year of
[0:41] 1947 the one on the left is right around
[0:43] Thanksgiving saying we'll be closed on
[0:45] Thanksgiving but the liquor store is
[0:46] open until 10:00 the one on the right is
[0:48] just talking about come and celebrate
[0:50] Christmas and of course big in the 40s
[0:52] and 50s around the holidays was Tom and
[0:54] Jerry's so that's mentioned in both
[0:56] those ads and I won't ask you but maybe
[0:59] I'll ask you you don't have to answer
[1:00] how many of you still have a Tom and
[1:02] Jerry set at
[1:04] home how many of you have
[1:08] two I knew it I knew I I knew I had
[1:11] friends okay here's probably the most
[1:15] popular picture that we've ever used
[1:16] about the mun gives you a great idea of
[1:19] where it was the theater was is that a
[1:21] jewelry store the municipal uh the sign
[1:24] in the window actually says on sale
[1:26] which you may or may not be able to read
[1:28] and it stood in this location until uh
[1:31] 1967 and if you have seen the uh cans of
[1:36] beer that our current mun had produced
[1:38] for their 75th there's a custom label
[1:40] that they had made and you'll recognize
[1:42] this picture incorporated as part of
[1:44] that label cuz uh I gave that to Jeff
[1:47] down at the mun to use to help create
[1:49] their their label off of so if you
[1:51] haven't seen those cans of beer you
[1:53] better go down and buy
[1:56] some okay a quick little trip just a
[1:58] couple uh Street scen just to kind of

[2:11] is and the cars and the parking and just
[2:13] on the other side of the railing of
[2:15] course would be the railroad and and the
[2:18] lake still looking West get a great
[2:21] sense of the style of cars of the day
[2:24] and there's that Gibbs Hardware building
[2:26] that I pointed out in the previous photo
[2:28] and then just beyond it um is the
[2:32] mun and this is one of our favorite
[2:35] photos uh those of us especially Sue and
