Description

Title	High Street - 218 - Charles Springer Cigar Factory
File Name	GPNC.02.212
Date of Original	1894
Description	Charles Springer's Cigar and Tobacco Store occupied this space in the late 1890's and early 1900's. The building was constructed in 1866 by Richard Penhallegan. In this photograph, a placard in the window advertises a Foot Ball game scheduled for Saturday, November 24, '94. The "National Democrat" (a Mineral Point newspaper), Sept. 1, 1866: "The store of Richard Penahallegan is nearly completed. Soon we shall see the smiling countenance of its owner - not at his old shanty - but at his new and commodious rock store." This building is included in the Wisconsin Architecture and History Inventory under record number 59702. See: http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/ahi/
