Prentice Wisconsin Post Office

November 16, 2012 By David W. Gates Jr.

ADDRESS: 428 Center St., Prentice, Wisconsin 54556

I wasn’t expecting much when I first drove up to the Prentice Wisconsin Post Office. But After I entered the lobby I was a bit surprised to find several old photographs of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Alexander Prentice. I never had the thought to ask or inquire why their pictures were on the wall.

The Alexander Prentice frame had a label stating he was the first postmaster and the first Village President. He must have been a smart and busy man. Although I’m not sure what all was involved back in 1882.

Needless to say I was glad to have something other than the exterior of the building to photograph.

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.
