Description

Dorothy and Dale Dorothy's first home, leased from 1945-1946. An old radio shop used to be in its place, hence the "Radio Doc" sign. Inscription with photo reads "First radio repair shop on North 4th St. 1946, now torn down... Our first ""home"" (leased) in Las Vegas 1945 to '46. We put the plate glass windows in and rented it to a woman who put a nice dress shop in it. We lived in the back part. We bought the hotel-motel in Whitney at that time and moved out there. Dale continued to repair radios in Whitney." [identified by Dorothy Dorothy 11-1-84]
