Dixie Liniment: 1905
Richmond, Virginia, circa 1905. "Main Street west from Eleventh." Merchants and products vying for our trade include O.H. Berry & Co. Outfitters, Southern Dental Rooms, David's Cough Syrup and Dixie Liniment. 8x10 inch glass negative, Detroit Photographic Co. View full size.
Pioneering streetcar line
That Virginia Electric Power trolley seen here represents the first successful electric streetcar line in the U.S., engineered by Frank Sprague, who went on to develop multiple-unit control from a single electric car, which made the NYC subway possible.
And in a bit of Shorpy kismet, his Sprague Electric Company factory is now MassMOCA in North Adams, Mass. -- but to the left of your panorama.
Some survived
The two buildings after O.H. Berry's are still there.
O.H Berry is gone, sadly
Others remain
