Anyone remember this attention-grabbing billboard? It was located by Rish Equipment, which today is the Bridgeport Municipal Complex and was for as it shows, Producers Golden Guernsey Dairy.

This photo is from 1960 and shows the time period when downtown Clarksburg was booming with business. Sears is shown with its location near the corner of Second and Main Street, while the Palace Furniture Company is shown fronting Main Street as its neighbor. Both have long sense ceased operations.
