Reinforced concrete exterior of G.W. Paulson Co. store. Employees of the G.W. Paulson Co., floor decorators, stand in front of company delivery vans on September 14, 1962. Paulson's had been located at 1224 Martin Luther King Jr. Way (then South "K" St.) since October, 1954. According to their ad in the 1962 City Directory, the G.W. Paulson Co. had been serving the Northwest since 1921. They were known for their "Beautiful Floors" of linoleum carpets as well as formica and floor tile. They handled both residential and commercial installations and would gladly call on customers with samples. G.W. Paulson's was managed by Robert D. Paulson. The firm had placed a full page ad in the News Tribune's 9-20-62 edition to alert customers of their newly remodeled and expanded store. Among additions were a custom carpet department, over-the-counter tile department and a commercial sales room. Photograph ordered by G.W. Paulson Co. (TNT ad 9-20-62, A-9)
