In more recent years, the building located at 109 South Colorado
Street was the tin fabrication shop of John Tolar Refrigeration.
"Purchased by John I. Tolar, Box 1013, Coleman, Texas 76834-1013, August
5, 1985." (Coleman County Deed Record Book
579, page 614.)
The sign in this 2003 photo reads "Price - Maitair Supply" - the
sign of the old Price Paint and Body Shop. |
