'Turnback Tuesday' features longtime Derby drug store

This week's "Turnback Tuesday" features The Purdy Drug Co. Established in 1894/1895 by Harrison E. Purdy, the company was first located at 68 Main St., Derby, which was where this image was taken. 
The Purdy Drug Co. then moved sometime in the 1930s and remained at 59 Fourth St. until it closed in the '60s. Harrison was the company President and Treasurer while his wife, Anna, was the Secretary.
