DescriptionFrom a photograph caption appearing in Tempe Daily News, September 24, 1977:

Turning Back Time -

Walk into the Old Mill restaurant at 234 West University drive, and you may feel you've just walked into the 1890s. Turn-of-the-century decor includes copper tile ceiling; the look of heavy carved wood; antiques - and a bit of Tempe history displayed in photos of early-day Tempe scenes and people which dot walls throughout the restaurant. Relaxing before the day's work are (l to r) manager Charley Nafe, owner Ken Pruitt and secretary Christine Pasek. Incidentally, football fans, the Old Mill will be open until 3 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.
The film negative of this photograph is housed in box 2G7-D.
