Sauset Saloon, 501 Cedar Avenue, Minneapolis. Photograph Collection ca. 1919 This is our building in 1919, curtesy of the Minnesota Historical Society. Things of particular interest: The brick paved street. The trolley tracks. South 5th Street coming through to meet Cedar Avenue where the Nomad’s bocce fields are now. This explains the curved corner treatment at the entrance. The “Violin Hospital” next door. The Charles A. Egeberg Bicycle Shop, photographed in 1910, was just down the street (note the amazing moped leaning against the building). All found by our friend, and newly appointed WBSC historian, Bryan Kennedy.
