Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon
| Description: |
A cartoon about how Knecht is distracted from work but the tearing down of an old firehouse, Number 2 Hose House. He mentions how hell now be able to see the clock on the courthouse since Sears will be building a one story auto supply and service building in its place. Image Access WideTEK 25 Right in our own Bailiwick an old land mark is vanishing. Old No. 2 Hose house being torn down. Right across from our Courier editorial windows, so its hard to concentrate without watching them and recording for you. Weve been highly intrigued for, with second floor walls most down, the on floor - dust and debris, there stands an upright piano - and some sort of ball game. All else (relics) of the late Servicemen Club and later Central Democratic Headquarters had been removed. Court house clock. Jail stack. Thanks boys. with Sears to build a one story auto supply-service building there - we will have much more north daylight and, see in addition to above -Y.M. - Court building and telephone building. Tops from our window. When was it built? Otto Meyer who managed Grand Theater 40 years ago says must be 75 years ago at least. The sidewalk supports at safety wall. Democratic headquarters. Who threw that brick? Sign still hangs out front. Why dont they take it to new quarters in Northwest First Street? Maybe they dont need it anymore? |
