N. S. Lee & Son Hardware Comments and History
Today memories of hardware stores thanks to the scrapbooks of Lucy Connelly Poaps Stewart Lee–Did you know the biggest mirror they ever caught was 10sq feet in size with curved sides- It ended up being attached to a large dresser. Another big thing at Lee Pro Hardware was screen repairs for for forgetful pets who can’t remember there was a screen:)
Sherron Davis sent me this photo.. Please send your photos cards and letterl.
Hi Linda. I wasn’t sure how to send you a message through the tales of almonte. Here’s a pic of my dad Garry Davis formerly of almonte used furniture and Gordie Lee of Lee Hardware the year the BIA hosted a pumpkin carving contest. I don’t have the year unfortunately.
