Road Work

I'm judging this photo to be dated from somewhere in the late 1940s/early 1950s.  The 1939 City Directory I have access to doesn't even mention Schultz Brothers yet and the Hidde's location was vacant at that time; Al Hidde was at Island Drug on Doty Avenure in Neenah then. 

The machinery obscures the front of those two businesses but we know they're there.  Gotta love the two onlookers sitting on the stoop of Bach's, taking in the action.

    The onlookers are on the steps of the BPOE next to the Ace Tavern.
