Page's Drug Store


Company Names, addresses, dates:
   Page's Drug Store, Orange VA

Notes:
Gordon Hill Page (1904-1991) was the proprietor of the Page Drug Store in Orange1.
An ad in a 1934 newspaper said that Page's Drug Store was "Orange's Newset Drug Store", and that it was located opposite the Court House2. That would put it at somewhere around 102 to 110 Main Street.

The earliest reference to Page's drug store in Orange that I could find was from 1929, and the latest was from 1958, so it existed during that time frame and maybe longer.
