By 1951, Braley's Inc. drugstore was advertised as having two separate stores, both inside the Medical Arts Building, but with two different addresses: 749 Market St. and 738 Saint Helens. At least one was located in the lobby of the Medical Arts Building. Four members of the staff are shown, L-R, Marie Reddy, clerk; George Norton, pharmacist-manager; A.J. DuWane, pharmacist; and Marjorie Robbins, clerk. H.Roland Harper was the store manager at this time. Braley's at been in business at the Medical Arts Building since 1930. The two stores had a large staff of five pharmacists and three clerks. Three of the pharmacists were women which may have not been common at the time. (TNT, 6/22/1951, p.B-1-ad)
