We thought it would be an interesting exercise to place the approximate location of these businesses onto a current map of Columbia.
Busy town!
To be continued tomorrow.

Like it, but it didn’t tell us what year.
Joe … Wish we could tell you the date; from the initial posting (https://columbianewsandviews.com/2011/10/11/business-was-brisk-in-real-old-columbia/#more-10806) earlier this week: “We’re uncertain of the age of the poster, but if anyone can shed any light, or wants to share any history on the poster or any of the businesses, send an email to 17512@mail.com or post a comment. While this does not exactly date the poster, we found this information about the owner of Markel’s Drug Store. We’re guessing the poster is from around 1920.” [Ed.]
