Winfield Street 800 Main 1888, Gilbert & Fuller's Store, Manning's Opera House, Youndheim's Clothing, Hahn's Drygoods.

This stereo image shows the North East corner of Ninth and Main Street. The building on the corner, Gilbert and Fuller's store is still the location of the US Post Office. The Post Office had been in this location since it was originally established in E. C. Manning's old log cabin trading post. The trading post sat at the intersection of the two main Indian trails in the area. Manning's Opera House occupies the upper story of the large building on the right.
