Other Information

Photo sequence showing the uncovering of the Mail Pouch sign in the old Conkey's Bookstore.

Will and Pam Weider purchased the old Conkey's bookstore to renovate the first floor into a new retail business and remodel the second floor into their living quarters. The sign was discovered early in 2014 and is now restored as a feature in their decor. The sign is a feature article in the Summer 2014 Volume 12 Issue 3 of the Mail Pouch Barnstormers newsletter.

Where to find it

224-226 E. College Ave., in Appleton. The two-story brick building is on the right side of E. College Ave. headed west from N. Durkee St. toward N. Morrison St. The sign was on the exterior wall of the adjacent building (Kimball's Meat Market), when the building was built in 1892.
