Date Range
1925 – 1925
Title
General Store, Post Office, Gas Pump, East Dover
What occurred
This is the center of town in East Dover, Vermont, most likely in the 1920s. Up until the late 1940s, there were no paved roads in the town, which produced nearly impassable roads in the spring "mud season" when frozen roads thawed. As the gasoline pump indicates, cars and trucks were in increasingly wide use. The post office is still in this building nearly a century later.
Location
East Dover, Vermont.
