Turnback Tuesday takes a rare look at the inside of the Derby Savings Bank, 163 Main Street (images taken 1893.)
The first [top] image looks in from the front entrance. The tellers’ windows are to the right in the back, with the safe located in the back left.
The second image is looking from overhead of the tellers' windows.
The big doors to the left are the front entrance, and the safe is around the wall to the right. William E. Downs was President, David Torrance, Vice President, and Thomas S. Birdseye, Secretary & Treasurer.

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