Four generations of the Manns family worked at Manns Drug Store, which was opened in 1926 by Walter Manns Sr., and his brother. Manns Drug Store was re-built in 1964, when Dave Manns was 14 years old.“It was so ultra-modern when we built it 55 years ago. The diamonds that have our name in them — that was revolutionary. I remember the day my dad got them. We waited until it got dark and went up on the hill and turned around to look at the new sign for the first time - we were just so thrilled and excited to see it.”5) Gilbert’s Shoes, Philadelphia, PA. Now a collectively-run, not-for-profit, community center. -- source link
