Mewhiter’s Drug Store and Del Curry’s Eatery

First photo: Here’s Mewhiter’s early drug store on the corner of Bohemia Avenue and Second Street. The lady is Miriam Hamilton Watson and the man is unidentified. Please let me know if you recognize him.
Second photo: This is inside Delmar Curry’s tiny restaurant, circa 1930. It was located just next to Franklin Hall, towards the canal. I don’t remember Del or the building, but John Vaughn told me about him and his shop; John said that Del made very good oyster stew. In his youth Delmar worked on one of the Ericsson Line steamers.
