Recreation project of the Baker-Fletcher pharmacy in Cardinal Ontario.
This Store was operated by my great Uncle Dave Baker and then by my Uncle Earle. Have always had fond memories of visiting this store when growing up so thought it would be a great idea to capture those happy thoughts on the 8Paws_RailLine.
The Drug store today in Cardinal Ontario from Google street view. Love the active rail line for Canada Starch Company right out the side door.
Below, the original store of Baker's Pharmacy, before the name change to Baker-Fletcher.
