Dr. W.H. Perrigo Veterinary Surgeon and Dentist

Image

A horse-drawn cart, marked B.C. Horsch, is waiting near Dr. W.H. Perrigo's veterinary and dental business in the S. Sixth Street neighborhood in Milwaukee. Behind the horse are commercial buildings. Two billboards advertize nearby theaters, the Bijou and the Shubert. The Shubert will begin showing Sherlock Holmes for a week beginning Monday June 3, 1907. In the front of the Horsch cart are a boy and a man, and two more boys sit on the back. There are two children sitting on the curb in front of the cart. The Shubert Theatre site is now occupied by the Pioneer Building.
