Oskaloosa Drug Company, Circa 1895; Iowa

Description

Pictured here is the Oskaloosa Drug Company with its staff standing outside of the building around 1895. Pharmacies in the 19th Century did not solely sell drugs to patrons, but carried other marketable goods as well in order to pick up a shortfall if people were not buying medicine from the store. This particular store offers paint and other products to potential patrons. Because of this, the concept of the soda pop fountain stemmed from the drug business.

First Congregational Church in Oskaloosa, Iowa, Circa 1900

Description

Religion has always played a very important role in Mahaska County, Iowa. One of the credits to the county has been its people's tolerance for others to worship freely without fear. This photograph shows the First Congregational Church located in Oskaloosa around 1900. This is a picture of the church prior to a massive fire that destroyed the Congregational Church in the downtown area of Oskaloosa in April of 1913. The church was located at the corner of 2nd Avenue West and South A Street. Today (2009), St. Paul's Congregational Church is located on High Avenue in Oskaloosa.
