In the photograph above, members of the Sandusky Register
“Chapel” of the Typographical Union fill up two vintage automobiles in downtown
Sandusky . The
cars appear to be decorated for a parade. (Possibly the Perry's Victory Centennial Parade?) The picture was taken in front of the
Pabst Cafe, between 1910 and 1913, which was located at the northeast corner of
Columbus Avenue
and Water Street ,
not far from the Sandusky Register building, which was at 626-630 Water Street, on the south side, between Columbus Avenue and Wayne Street . (The street numbers
indicate that the picture was taken before the 1915 change in the street
numbering system.) The proprietors of
the Pabst Cafe and Grill Room at that time were Moe Frohman and Frank
Elzenheimer. Note that the street is paved with bricks. To see this and many
other historical photographs of Sandusky and Erie County ,

Library Archives
