Title: Dentist's Office Interior
Description: Interior of the dental office which was located at 901 1/2 Main Street in Grinnell, Iowa. Dentists who were located there were O.H. Gallagher from 1905-1934, D.C. Hudson in 1935, and K.L. Hoefert from 1938-1940. This image was given to Bill Hammen of Hammen's Jewelry many years ago by a woman who said her grandfather had been a dentist in this space. Unfortunately neither the name of the woman nor her grandfather's name was recorded, so we have no way of knowing who is in this picture. Probably one of the white coated men is the dentist and the other is his assistant as there was never a time when there was more than one dentist practicing in this space.
