Another post under construction:
I'm indebted to Jim Prange, the son of James, among the oldest of the nine Prange children, for these fine prints of the A.R. Prange store during the early 1930s, Adolph and Edna during the late 1930s, and David, Charles and Hal in their youth. The store -- literally overlooking the White River -- holds a key place in my earliest memories -- long before I was eventually old enough to venture southward up the gravel road on those hot summer days, along with every other kid in the area, to swim in the August Prange irrigation canal, just across from Schwab's Store.

| Apparently the same shot as above but with a different frame that includes the Lutheran Church. |
