From the November 9, 2016, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1916, 100 Years Ago.
"Perry W. Fisk, or rather the Fisk Motor Company, announces that in about three weeks' time, a Buick service station and show room will be established in conjunction with its Ford station at North Second Street.
"Roche & Concidine have leased the other end of their large tie-in barn to the Fisk Motor Company and have ordered the place remodeled for the auto rooms. The new addition will be about 50 by 90 feet, with a driveway on Locust Street."
Lookout, Here Come the Buicks! --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
