On Mansfield's South Main Street, the barber shop,
newsroom and Harsock's Bakery stood side by side for many years
in the 1950s. I have been able to accumulate photos of some from yearbook
ads these businesses sponsored and from other souerces as well.

In this photo Jim Carracciolo
stands outside his shop next to the barber shop, newsroom and bakery. The
bakery building remains as Gannon Insurance Agency in 2010. The others
were razed when the Waldeman Building was erected. |

This July 2010 photo is of the same sequence of buildings as above.
The Mansfield Restaurant, which in its latest version was called University
Club, was razed 2010 and replace by the new borough building which also
incorporates the Waldeman Building. The blue building at right is the former
Hartsock's Bakery, now insurance agency. |

odors that it emitted. Everyone who went there remembers their favorite
treat. See also; The Neighborhood Baker
