The Three Amigos

Eleanor Donovan sent in this picture of Alexander Stackhouse and his soon wife to be - Mitzi Petroff on the right. Her dad owned a bar at the corner of 4th Avenue and Broad Street in Cambria City. The young lady in the front is Ann - who Eleanor thinks could possibly be the "Ann" from Ann's Place - the bar on Bedford Street.
