Atlanta Georgia Sporting Goods

Post by David Lehmann »

I interviewed a gentleman today who was telling me about selling fishing reels (he was a salesman) to a large Atlanta sporting goods store in 1950. It sounded like he said the story was called "Welhuasen & Hood" but I find nothing under that name doing an internet search. Does anybody know the store name? Thanks!

Found it. Walthour & Hood. Opened its doors around 1890 and was around until at least the sixties.
