copper must not be as in demand in Germany as it is here. All that would've long since been gone.

Records

chris

Uhm...pretty sure the top right hand box says 2008. and I too have been in old places with abandoned records. If they are old they are scattered all over the floor or in boxes that aren't nearly so "new" looking....just my 2 cents

My grandparents lived in Dallas, Pa. My grandmother used to have meals at the Sterling from time to time. I remember hearing about the hotel but I don't remember having been in it. The reason that I found this website is because I was discussing Thanksgiving with my mother, 86 years old. She said that one year -- 1950's, 1960's - my grandmother decided not to invite the family for Thanksgiving dinner. I guess she was just tired of all the work so she went by herself to the Sterling. I think that was her way of telling everyone that it was time someone else took over so it became my mother's responsibility after that. My grandmother said by the way, that the Thanksgiving dinner at the Sterling was very good but she missed the leftovers. Other places I either vaguely remember or remember hearing about from my parents and grandparents: Percy Brown's, St Stephen's Church where I was baptized, Lazarus Dept Store, the Westmoreland Club that my grandfather belonged to, the Black Diamond train ..... The city has changed! A shame about the hotel.....

I don't know how to thank you for putting these photos up on the Web. These artful and haunting images -- every single one of them -- touch me on a very personal level,. For, you see, my own German-American father (d.1981) was committed to Broadacres twice in the 1930s and 40s with adult TB. He lived there for a cumulative total of maybe 3 yrs or more, and my mother tells me she visited him there daily. All of this happened long before I was born, and lately I've been trying to reconstruct pieces of my father's distant past. The pictures you've posted are an enormous help!
FYI, I have good scans of several old photos of my father at Broadacres, and of course I have the original prints. If at all interested, you can email me at cnill@live.com.
