Strawbery Banke Presents
HISTORIC PORTSMOUTH #18
Customers at Benjamin Green’s drug store in Market Square in 1895 asked the clerk
for remedies kept behind the counter. Today a coffee shop, Green’s then sported
a classy tin ceiling and gas and electrical fixtures. A dot in the middle of the
photo, when enlarged, shows the mirrored reflection of the camera.
