| The photo above shows the
Marsh Barber Shop on Wheeling Ave. in Cambridge, Ohio about 1905-1910.
The gentleman holding the dog was Grant Marsh who was the father of Carl
Marsh who later was a barber in Cambridge for several decades. The photo
was taken on lower Wheeling Ave. where Jeffries car lot is now located.
The family also was active in making cigars in the area
and owned and operated several cigar factories. The fancy lettering on
the window certainly shows the long lost art of window sign painting
back when it required an expert hand at such matters. |
