Soda Fountain at Salem Apothecary, The Basket Case
The Lyon Parlor Soda fountain has been in the Salem Apothecary since their grand opening in November of 1985. The soda fountain itself is from the Renaker Dime Store in Corydon, IN, the set of 8 stools from another old drug store in Madison, IN and the footstep was built by our Pharmacist Rebecca’s husband Phil. The circa 1916 soda fountain unit took five guys to remove it from its original location and get it into place by the front window of the Salem Apothecary! What child or adult wouldn’t want to sit on those stools and be able to spin?
