Taylor "Mel" Culbert (son of Myron Manford Culbert & Effie Pearl
Taylor) was a young man when this photo was taken circa 1939.
Mel (1920-1958) and his brother, Ivan Culbert (1918-1979) grew up on Poplar Farm near Lucan, Ontario, Canada. The two young brothers worked at Cossey's Dry Goods store (above) at 225-227 Dundas Street in London, Ontario. Later, they opened their own side-by-side stores on the Main Street of Lucan.
To read about Cossey's Dry Goods store and the Culbert Brothers, see this previous post. The post includes the original photograph before the reindeer and other festive touches were added.
