“After giving an overview of the drug stores in the downtown Manhattan area from the 1860s to today, Aggieville Historian Dan Walter shares stories and pictures of the pharmacies and pharmacists of Aggieville. From the day the first Aggieville drug store opened its doors in 1912 to the day the last one closed in 1978, Aggieville drug stores were more than just retail outlets for medicines—they were social centers for generations of K-Staters and Manhattan residents. A pictorial history of an era in Aggieville history that is gone but not forgotten.”
Available as a “print-on-demand” publication at Able Printing in Aggieville, my latest book on Aggieville history is filled with stories and photos of the people and places that made Aggieville drug stores a treasured part of Manhattan history.
