When you stroll by Chase Bank in Girard on W. Liberty Street, take notice of the clock that has been there since at least the late 1940s early 1950s. It wasn't originally in the current location. The bank used to be half the size it is now, as Charlie TV Davis (advertisement from 1953) occupied 47 W. Liberty St., and the bank, 43 W. Liberty ST., which has been through several name changes since the early 1900s. The clock was mounted at 43 W. Liberty and then moved to the current location, when the bank expanded. Now to find when the clock was originally installed, and then moved. Fodder for another day!
