Scope and content
Druggist Ed R. Rowe was featured in the July 11, 1936 Bremerton Sun column "Around the Clock." He was the pharmacist and manager of Rowe's Pharmacy on Sixth St. and High Ave. in Bremerton. He was also a jack-of-all-trades at the corner drugstore, dividing his time between the cash register, preparing milk shakes and sodas at the soda fountain and mixing chemicals for prescriptions in the backroom. He was pictured standing at the soda fountain of his drug store, pouring liquid into a chemist's beaker. Soda fountain equipment, the drug store window, and neighborhood houses are visible. Pharmacist Rowe came to Bremerton in 1917 and had partnered in the Park Ave. Drug Co. with Henry Paulson. In 1932, he opened his own pharmacy and had recently moved to the pictured location. (Bremerton Sun 07-11-1936, pg. 1).
