Tranquil Scene

from The Booming City of Menasha, Wisconsin, 1887

This tranquil artwork was featured as an illustration in the aforementioned text. We've discussed this booklet before; it was used as a public relations vehicle to publicize and generate interest in Menasha for outside merchants and industries to relocate to our fair town. 

CORRECTION:  In the blog post of January 8th, I mistakenly listed Tip Top's former address as 113 Main.  In reality, it should have read 216 Main.  I had looked at the wrong city directory which had a listing for another business named "Tip Top" with no other identifying information.  I regret the error.
