Pictures of the Past #88

G.D. Fronabarger left the Missourian boxes and boxes of negatives. What he didn't leave were IDs for them. Pictures of the Past features some of Frony's images we've partially identified. We're hoping you can help fill in the blanks. Contact librarian Sharon Sanders at ssanders@semissourian.com, if you recognize a place or a face. Mystery Galleries may still be viewed on our History Page, http://www.semissourian.com/history/

Oct.4, 1956 Southeast Missourian. Mrs. Truman Hahs and her daughters, Carol, Nancy and Janet, of near Old Appleton, Missouri, pose for a food feature photo. “We try to set an example for good food habits by eating all foods. This helps the children to like a variety of foods,” Mrs. Hahs said. “Meals should be colorful and attractive. Children enjoy foods with “eye” appeal.”

July 27, 1962 Southeast Missourian. Holding an authentic Japanese grey teapot is Miss Aileen Lorberg whose collection of 116 teapots was garnered from all over the world. The curio is especially interesting because it is side handled. (G.D. Fronabarger/Southeast Missourian archive) Teapot viewers, states Miss Lorberg, are an almost weekly occurrence with her, and she usually has a waiting list of about 30. Her tea table is always set; tea is in the pot needing only to be brewed, and many have been the intimate and cozy gatherings, and the warm exchanges among friends at the tea hour. [She was a former teacher and a longtime columnist for the Bulletin Journal and Southeast Missourian newspapers.]

Nov. 2, 1961 Southeast Missourian The small building across from The Missourian, in use for many years for many purposes, came tumbling down Wednesday under the wrecking bars of a crew of men. Erected decades ago as an appendage to the Old Opera House, it was once used by the late Dr. C.E. Schuchert as a dental office. It became a barber shop, an accountant’s office, a sign painter’s headquarters, an office building and a grill, among others, in the course of its long life. Growing demand for parking and planned future construction on the site, dictated it be destroyed. The site, terraced at the rear along with two adjoining lots to the west, will be converted into automobile parking space. The wrecking job was completed Wednesday, except for removal of an overhang leading to the adjoining restaurant. (G.D. Fronabarger/Southeast Missourian archive)
