G. C. Murphy store employees, Franklin, Indiana, 1956
| Description: |
G. C. Murphy store employees pose on the basement steps inside the store. Merchandise includes clothing and beach balls. A sign reads Opening Special, so this was probably taken during grand opening of the new G. C. Murphy store in 1956. According to the Franklin Evening Star, 26 July 1956, p. 1, the new G. C. Murphy Company store reopened in a new, modern building that morning. The old store at the same location was destroyed by fire on November 25, 1955.See object ID #ia-0321-c001-0002 through ia-0321-c001-0025 for more photos from this collection. |
