William Nowell, a watchmaker, and his wife, Juvernia, opened Nowell's Camera Shop at 609 Broadway in the early 1950s. They took over a large film and processing trade that had been established at Haman's Drugstore at the same location. Originally carrying cameras and jewelry, the store has evolved into Cape's only photo specialty shop. In 1979 the Nowells retired, selling the store to Don Beattie, a long-time employee, and his wife, Teri, who have expanded the business in both merchandise, lines carried and services offered. Nowell's offers a wide selection of quality photographic merchandise backed by a friendly, knowledgeable staff.
