The following information was given to Historic Saranac Lake along with a donation by Thomas Wells, June 8, 2020
These came to me from my mother, Georgia Maltesios Wells. She attended Saranac Lake high school, both junior and senior high, from 1935-41. She lived in several locations in Saranac Lake including 33 Bloomingdale Avenue, 15 Lake Street, and 25 Broadway. My mother married Emerson Wells in 1954 and these items came from a trip they took so she could show her hometown to him. She worked at Sarbanes Coffee Shop in 1938, Thomas and Mary's hairstyle shop 1939-1940, Northern New York wholesale Souvenir Co. 1941-42, and Walsemann's Coffee Shop, 1942-44.
