It seems that much of Main Street has been lost to fires over the years. The one I probably remember best is 2009--in part due to being older and part due to going past as I went to feed Jobie. In going through the "archaeological finds" (my parent's belongings), I found that they had saved the Miles City Star from June 9, 1964 which detailed the Wibaux Building fire. I don't really remember the fire. I do remember Della's Dress Shop and thought it was interesting that the clothing was transported across the street to Shore's. In some ways, not unlike the 2009 fire when inventory was moved across the street to secure it. It seems to me that Miles City has pretty much always been a place that people helped out when you needed it.
I also found the paper interesting because the typeset has changed over the years. The old ads were great, too. Special thanks to the Miles City Star for saying it was OK to post this as long as they got credit (which they deserve). I thought it was too good not to share.
