Shown here is Brubaker's crossroad near Brunnerville looking east. Who remembers buying milk from Spruce Villa Dairy right near this location? This photo was taken in the 1940's.

Early 1900's real photo postcard view of Spruce street. Look closely to see a young child flying a kite in the middle of the road, which was unpaved.

Photographed approximately 100 years apart, here's a now versus then peek of the intersection of and South Broad and Lemon Streets in Lititz looking north. As you can see, very little has changed across a century.

Did you know…in June, 1937, members of the Lititz Sportsmen Association built the fountain shown here. The fountain replaced the bubblers and troughs which were once located at the headend at the spring.

On Tuesday April 30th 1895, transportation changed for the residents of Lititz forever. For this was the day that the very first trolley on the Lancaster-Lititz “electric railroad” was put into operation. Seen here is a car traveling the Kissel Hill section, just south of Lititz.

Seen here is a 1950s photo taken along East Main Street during the week of the Lititz Community Show. The event would be a downtown annual fixture from 1920 to 1959.

Shown here is a 1930s view of the Warwick House, which was once located at 104 N. Broad Street in Lititz and first opened in 1809. During the time this photo was taken, C.M. Snavely ran a gas station on the left side of the structure, and featured gas at six gallons for a dollar!
