The possibility of a securing a big contract in 1899 to print salt bags for a very large salt company likely spurred George Clapper to buy the property in 1901[1]. The name CLAPPER is still visible on the top of the brick building and references the time period between 1904-1922 when businessman George A. Clapper and his wife Huldah operated the Clapper Printing & Bag Co. out of the building. After their deaths in 1922 and 1920 respectively, their daughter, Vera Clapper inherited the property. Vera Clapper sold one-half interest in the property to Daisy Mae Derr when the business became Derr Printing Co. These two women held the property until 1943. The Imhoff & Long Co operated at this location for a number of years.
