The following photo dates from 1952 and shows Patricia Cable (Lester) in front of her <br />grandmother's house at 932 Main, looking west towards 927 Main: <br />In 1953, the building was still owned by Jennie Lombardi, and it was still called the <br />Louisville Cleaners, but it was now operated by William F. Bentley. <br />William and Katherine Prime Ownership, 1965-1973 <br />In 1965, William and Katherine Prime purchased 927 Main. William Prime passed away <br />in 1966 and the property continued to be owned by Katherine Prime. It is not known for <br />certain whether the building was operated as a Laundromat during their ownership (and <br />if so, what the business was called). <br />Teddy & Dorothy Putnam Ownership, 1973-1980 <br />Teddy and Dorothy Putnam, who purchased 927 Main in 1973, operated a Laundromat <br />in the building. According to the 1974 directory, it was called "Katie's Laundromat." By <br />1977, the name had been changed to "Mom & Pop's Laundromat." In 1978, it was called <br />"Mom & Pop's Speedwash." In 1979, Mountain High Construction, operated by Rory <br />Goscha, was a second business listed for 927 Main in addition to Mom & Pop's <br />Laundromat. <br />The following photo, made of three photos taken from different views and attached <br />together, shows 927 Main in 1978: <br />8 <br />
