Remodeled City Market Opens Amid Wartime Challenges
The City Market at South Center street, operated by O W Follett and son Vennis, unveils a remodeled storefront and new exterior features marking a major upgrade. The long history traces back to Edward Hubbard and C B Wilcox, with John Ward a veteran cutter aiding steady growth through rationing and supply shortages. The Folletts expanded from First Avenue to a central location, and now sustain Hereford cattle buying to offset wartime retail pressures.
