#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Honoring Coburn Company’s 100th Anniversary


It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society. This week’s image has been lent to the historical society by the Coburn Company. It is a view of their business location sometime between 1950 and 1976. The building was part of the old Winchester and Partridge Manufacturing Company factory on Whitewater Street. The building burned in 1976.

In honor of the Coburn Company’s 100th anniversary, the museum’s temporary exhibit this year is about this home-grown company. Come to the museum on May 20 at 4:00 p.m. to celebrate this new exhibit.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
