Letter: Might be Style Shop Ann Heskamp Curtis writes: This unidentified store in the 1960's snow series might have been The Style Shop, owned by Paul and Mabel Jones. It was located next door to the then IGA Grocery, and just down the block from the Corner Drug Store.Comments re: Heavy snow blankets downtown Columbia, ca 1960 2022-12-11 18:41:27 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
Letter: Snowstorm of 1960 Victoria Pike writes: Thank you for sharing these pictures. I arrived on March 17, 1960, at Rosary Hospital in Campbellsville. I've heard stories of how rough it was getting to the hospital. Momma said the snow was up to the window sills on our house. The county road crew had to clear a path out for them to get out. Maurice Moran was on the road crew at that time. Had never seen pictures of how it actually was then. Sure hope we don't see snow like this again for sometime to come.Comments re: The snowstorm of March 1960 2022-12-11 18:39:53 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

IGA Super Market on the Columbia Square Re: Public Square in the snow, ca 1960 By JIM The Columbia Kroger store closed on December 26, 1959. Within days, J.D. Harper, a veteran of the Columbia food scene, announced he was opening an IGA store there. The grand opening of Harper's IGA Super Market was held on Thursday-Friday-Saturday, January 6, 7, & 8, 1960. The symbol at each end of the word "canned" in the "canned food sale" window announcement appears to be the IGA logo. Mr. Harper's ad in the March 9, 1960 Adair County News offered customers a "Dime of Your Life" sale on several varieties of canned vegetables. This helps to verify the footage was indeed of the Great Snowfall of March 1960, as there were no major weather events the following winter, and the Ben Franklin store occupied the space well before the winter of 1961-1962 rolled in. 2022-12-11 10:42:29 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Jim: History
