I don't have a name for the stone freight building next Spanky Shoes (it's on my list of questions for George).


Notes added 12/11/15: I talked to George and this building is called Stones Welding Company.

Behind Spanky Shoes in the picture is G. Wilikers.











This photograph from Mark Dalrymple caught the G. Wilikers sign and part of the building.

John, you are amazing. A labor of love, as I know the time you spend cataloging, editing, re-sizing and posting these. I hope this is somehow saved for posterity in various "clouds" or whatever. Thanks!
