Scope and content
Exterior of Schubert's Westgate Pharmacy. As its rooftop sign indicates, Schubert's promoted Rexall prescription drugs. It was located in the Westgate Shopping center which had opened in 1953. Gene's Westgate TV was the pharmacy's immediate neighbor. Schubert's, owned by Guy W. Schubert, was listed in the 1958 City Directory as a complete drugstore serving the North End. It had both a post office and served fountain lunches and beverages. Schubert's windows displayed items for both young and old: one window emphasized Valentine's Day cards and candy and the other, Geritol products. Photograph ordered by Teleradio Advertisers, Inc., for KTVW.
