A Glimpse Inside Home Hardware, c. 1960
Established in 1947 by Herb Stalnaker and Thomas Stockert, Jr, the Home Hardware became more than just a business here in Buckhannon... it was an "institution".
Located at 25 E Main Street, personalized service was the motto of this establishment that provided "Hardware for the Farm and Home" until it closed in 2006.
