Today’s old photo comes again from the dumped collection of the Detroit News. This photo is dated January 27, 1923, but was clearly not taken in January. I think this is the same photo that once ran in the Windsor Star, although the photo has a photographers stamp in the bottom corner:
“E. Rogers
Day & Night Studio
25 Pitt St. E.
Windsor, Ont.”
I’m going to guess that Evan A. Rogers sold his photo from 1922 to both the Star and the News. 🙂
This photo reveals in the details a man hard at work either sprucing up or putting final touches on the stalls…
It was a nice looking building. A shame this one was lost too… I like the “D” in the roof. Nice architectural details.
Have a good weekend everyone. See you back here on Monday.

Also, I meant to ask: are there any such other collections on this side of the border, either at the UofW library or the Windsor Public Library?
Lisa, try googling "windsor contentdm" when you get to that site there's an area on the top left with a drop box. In that go to "heritage" quite a few old photos on there. Andrew had turned me on to that a whie ago.
Thanks Aaron, much appreciated!
