I came across this photograph during one of those frigid days last week. It was taken on an equally frigid day sometime in the late 1930s I surmise. It's my uncle Bill Fish Jr. on the left and the identities of the other fellows are lost in time. And look closely and you'll see another pedestrian walking behind.
Yesterday I walked up from the Coudersport post office, navigating my way around dirty snow piles, puddles, and the uneven, frost-heaved slate sidewalks that used to be prime roller skating territory. The corner of Fifth Street and North Main, my old neighborhood.

I wonder who took the original photo standing where you stood recently
In front of Birdella's right next to where Ed Fisher used to sell Christmas trees. The family Christmas tree had a tendency to lean in that direction, it was said.
