Preserving The Past

There is a second book store on the south side that originally was a bank. The current owners managed to preserve this old safe when they bought the building

certainly is a great historic centre piece to the shop. Good shot.

[Sarah Bremner]

Cool! Wonder if they have special items stored in there 😃😃

[Kathie]

These must have been for small deposits. Nice they preserved it.

[Henri Russell]

It's good that they were able to preserve it.

[Dinah Pinkston]

Very nice that the current owners know the value of history -- and this looks like a wonderful amount of books to peruse!

[Babs]

I wonder if the bank left some money in the safe.

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[Helen Sanderson]

nice little book press they have there...I'm always looking for one!! :)

[Jane Anderson]

Looks like a very serious safe!

[Harry J Benson]

the display fits in nicely

[Tony]

Like the image and just thinking it would be easier to leave it rather than try to move it.

[Cathie]

Looks pretty secure!

[Sharon]

What a treasure.

[Diana]

Great shot

Great capture and safe. I think that might be a printing press on the top reminds me of one we had at school

[Francoise]

I'm (sadly perhaps) impressed that there is a location with two bookstores...

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

My uncle owned an old bank building for a while. He searched for years for the vault door. Lots of rumor,but never located it. He remembered seeing it when he was a kid, but it was gone from that location by the time he was hunting for it.
