Herald Democrat, June 7, 1998, in Judge R. C. Vaughan's column:
D. B. Bailey's Drug Store depicted in Denison Herald, January 6, 1991, Photo from Denison's Past. Prominently displayed on a wall of the store is a large painting which the Herald described as depicting the Battle of the Alamo. The artist was L. R. Bromley and the date of the painting 1884.
Dr. Doak Blassingame sent along a copy of the photo of the drug store interior with the further information that he remembers what he believes to be the same painting which hung in Room 305 at the Old Denison High School building up on West Main Street.... It was an oil painting which he estimates was approximately 3 feet by 12 feet in size.

Located at 408 West Main Street.




"Bailey & Howard, Druggists" sign in second-floor loft at 408 West Main Street, ca. 1998
 Apparently the firm sold "Ayer's Sarsaparilla," a widely advertised "tonic for the blood."
This sign was painted on the wall before the building at 408 was constructed.
