Later, when the Charles Schreiner Bank moved from its location as a part of the Schreiner store building, Dr. Domingues moved one door west into a newly-constructed office. These images show Dr. Domingues's office and the new Charles Schreiner Bank.
My thanks to Mr. Jobes for sharing these images with all of us.

Great photos!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
The first photo is very interesting because it shows what existed before the Blue Bonnet Hotel was built.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first photo that I've seen of the Blue Bonnet Hotel that was taken before the extra floors were added.
ReplyDeleteThese are some of my favorite Kerrville photos.
ReplyDeleteWhile looking at these photos one more time, I noticed something that previously escaped my eye.
ReplyDeleteIn the second photo, there is a display table in the center of the room (Dr. Domingues and another gentleman are standing near the table).
Upon closer examination, it appears that the table has small seats (underneath) that swing out if needed.
Instead of having chairs, that take up valuable space in a small area, it was ingenious to have swing-out chairs.
