Throwback Thursday

Thu, 12/25/2014 - 8:00am

Christmas Night, 1884. I’m sure you know where this.

For those who guessed last week’s Throwback Thursday photo, it was the Rockland eatery Simm's Lunch (its second location after the 1952 fire), owned by Carl Simmons, at the corner of Park and Union Streets, 1953. Taken by Sidney L. Cullen. The man on the far right facing the camera is John O' Sullivan Jr. Submitted by Andrew Carpenter and courtesy of Rockland, Maine History Facebook page.

The provider of this week’s photo will be revealed next week.

Merry Christmas!
