'Turnback Tuesday' features furniture store in downtown Derby

Turnback Tuesday takes a look at the Lee Brothers Furniture at 57 Elizabeth St., Derby.

The Lees were the successors to D & S Champlain Inc., changing it to Lee Brothers in 1930, specializing over the years in furniture, floor coverings, bedding, appliances, and oil heaters.

The Lees ran a successful business until 1965. The building has long been removed, but it would have been located at the corner of what is now Elizabeth and 3rd Streets. The gentleman in the foreground is Officer Edward (Eddy) Slezak.

This photo is from 1955.

Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
