Postie’s Beverages – 55 South
Manning Street, McAdoo, PA.
It appears that Postie’s was
once a local soft drink maker and distributor that have evolved into just a
distributor today. I did find some examples of old bottles for sale online, but
relatively little other information.
As I was finishing my
photography of the building an older man stuck his head out the door and yelled
at me, “What the hell are you looking at?” I explained that I was a traveler, interested
in old buildings, and just taking a few photographs. He replied, “A traveler,
uh?” I went on to apologize if I were disturbing him in any way. He looked
around, still not sure of me, “I thought you might be the bank, looking to
repossess me.” I assured him I was not, which seemed to placate him. The
encounter made me disinclined to enter the store. Although the next time I am
passing through I will, more than likely, stop in.
