Here's a scene from a bustling day on Main Street Here's a scene from a bustling day on Main Street in Valentine featuring several notable businesses. Two to highlight are the State Bank and Babcock's.  The State Bank operated at this location from 1915-1964, moving next door under a different name in 1965. Babcock's, a men's clothing store, opened in 1950.

Based on this information, what year do you think this could be? What other businesses do you recognize?

July 4, 1898, floats from the parade in Valentine, July 4, 1898, floats from the parade in Valentine, NE.  Photographer unknown.

The USS Olympia, a warship famous for its decisive victory at the Battle of Manila Bay, would have been a very popular attraction at the time. Taken during the midst of the Spanish-American War, parade-goers likely felt very patriotic about America's victory overseas. What do you think about this boat/float? ๐Ÿ›ณ
