Mission Street at Main, circa 1955
Photographer:
Paulu T. Saari
Description:
The building partially visible at extreme left was part of the Red Men block, which was destroyed by fire, along with the old Coliseum Theatre, the following year. The Chevron sign at right was mounted on Petersen Motors, a filling station and garage that occupied the corner of Mission and Main. The structure on the southeast corner of the intersection was later replaced with a local bank.
