1 cup minute oats
1/3 cup flower

A walk downtown in 1967

Posted by Fred Steiner on October 26, 2015 - 11:49am

For viewers who don't have a look back memory to 1967, this is a very unfamiliar Bluffton  scene.

It is, in fact, South Main Street, Bluffton.  Dick Boehr took the photo on Sept. 1, 1968.

Here's the view:

• Far right, Citizens National Bank in a remodeling phase (not the current brick one, but one prior to it).

• Center, Millager's Pharmacy. Millager's eventually became the site of CNB expansion.

• Far left, West Ohio Gas Company. It, too, eventually became the site of CNB expansion.
