Friday Flashback #421

Readers love photos of “old” downtown.

This one evokes memories of businesses that stood the test of time.

And there’s an added bonus: a reminder of what 2-way traffic all the way down Main Street looked like.

In the photo above, Swezey Jewelers was noted for its elaborate Christmas displays, with a real model train set operating in the window.

Oscar’s was in its original location, before moving a few doors north. (Where it is now 159 Main Street, after several years as Rye Ridge Deli.)
