I forgot to mail a small package to a friend before leaving L.A., so I sent it from the Independence post office since we were stopping in the area. Honestly, I was a little wary, but my friend just said they got the package, so it worked. Thank you!

Building started as a bank 100 years ago as per following article:
Inyo Independent, Volume LI, Number 45, 19 March 1921
Moving Into New Quarters
The Inyo County Branch Bank is moving into its new building this afternoon. The interior of the new banking place of business is not only pleasing to the eye but every facility for the handling of the bank’s steadily growing business is present. Not only will the public be better served but the bank’s attaches will be in a position to do their work to better advantage. The improvement is one the community heartily appreciates. _________________________________
As rapidly as the change can be made the old banking quarters will be remodeled to suit the needs of the Independence Drug Store. Joe Fowler has the work in charge.
