In January of 1936, two McLean's Lyon Van Lines trucks delivered new, crated Magic Chef gas stoves to the Lauan Apartments, 818 So. 11th St. The brick apartment building had been built in 1925 by John Buffelen. It was constructed and furnished primarily with Tacoma products. The 64 apartments each received a new gas stove in January of 1936. Photograph taken as advertising for Washington Gas & Electric Co.
