Lorain Creamery: Scoop 3




By 1947, Roy Deal was apparently out of the picture as only the two Gray brothers are listed in the city directory as being associated with the Lorain Creamery. A 1949 Lorain phone book ad depicted the distinctive building (see top ad).
   A 1956 ad (see lower ad) introduced a new, cleaner rendering of the building, as well as a curious swap of the phrases in their slogan. By that time there were 14 dairies in town, including Home Dairy and Cloverdale.
