Description

Hannibal, Missouri, on the banks of the Mississippi River, prides itself as "America's Hometown." This book is a photo journey through Hannibal's postwar years as captured through the lens of Otis Howell, news photographer for the Hannibal Courier-Post. The years between the end of World War II and Vietnam were exciting and nostalgic ones.

They were the days of Elvis, Howdy Doody, "I Like Ike," Desotos, and Sputnik.

In Hannibal, Bud's Golden Cream was a popular spot and people shopped at Silverburg's and Kresge's.

A special treat was a Saturday matinee at the Rialto or the Star.

KHMO's "Man on the Street" was a regular fixture at Broadway and Main.

Hannibal: The Otis Howell Collection recalls people and places from the events of that time through over 220 rare images.

Many of these photos have not been seen since they first appeared on the pages of the Hannibal Courier-Post decades ago.
