Early 1910s Monticello drug store delivery scene on Broadway
Teamsters with six horses pull a temporary drug store along Broadway in Monticello circa 1910 after the Aug 11, 1909 fire. Crain's Pharmacy stood among burned properties while the National Union Bank under construction, Fisher and Kelly buildings, and Knights of Columbus HQ framed the street. Retired druggist Robert S. York helped build the shack. The area later saw paving and enduring wide streets as merchants rebuilt.
