I am unsure where the Mansfield Rubber stamp Co. is , but I know that the first store was on the square and the second store was one street over from what I am told. The name of the store was Mansfield Photo Supply, I remember that when I entered it with my Grandpa,( Frank J.W. Goldsmith), we walked in from the rear. I remember climbing steps to reach the sales floor. I believe it is near the hobby store by the Richland bank building but am not sure. I was over there some years ago and either the hobby store owner or the store beside it said he still had some of the stuff from the store. I hope this helps it was many years ago when I was there with him and I was pretty young at the time. He owned and operated the store from 1948 to 1973, having been born in 1963, the oldest I would have been is 10. My uncle Jim ran the second store but I don't believe it lasted very long.
