A Watertown merchant and a Watertown
manufacturer have combined talents to provide the community with an example of
products “Made in Watertown - Sold in Watertown.” The result is currently
on display at 220 South First Street, the Hutson-Braun Lumber Co. It is
here that the Hutson-Braun Lumber Co. has designed a complete display window
for the showing of Village Blacksmith's new line of “Galaxy Letter
Boxes.” Local residents had a preview of these residential mail boxes
last spring at the Jaycee Industrial Fair at the National Guard Armory.
Since that time they have been acclaimed as the most
beautiful line of home mail boxes produced anywhere in the nation. WDT
