Many of you remember Furbee's Drug Store on Main Street. Most of us would like to remember some of the prices shown in the window such as a sunday for 9 cents or a banana split for 19 cents that you could get from their soda fountain. If you have any memories of this store, share them below. This particular photo is from 1956.

Back in 1966, when this photo was taken, there were restaurants just about everywhere in downtown Clarksburg of all sizes and offering a little bit of everything. This one on Main Street is offering up hot dogs and hamburgers as well as something you almost can't find anymore outside - a phone booth.
