Vermillion, OH and Big Ed’s

Already making good mileage today. Stopped in Vermillion, OH to mail some post cards and saw Big Ed’s Soda Fountain on Main Street. It’s in a building that used to be the old dry goods store and dates to 1872.

Has the old soda fountain and old booths lining the wall with Collectibles on the shelf above including a pair of saddle shoes, the cymbal playing wind up circus monkey and a Dixie Belle ice cream freezer.

On the window there’s advertising for phosphates, egg cremes, and tin roofs.

That’s as much as I can see through the window. The store is closed and doesn’t open for two more hours and I have to move along.
Vermillion seems like a nice little Norman Rockwell town.
