Stopping Time ~

The caption reads: Stopping Time — Time on the landmark clock in front of the Pittsburgh National Bank building on Main Street stopped at 10:36 a.m. on August 8, 1968 when it was hit by a truck. Bank oficials said they planned to see if the 47-year-old toppled timepiece was repairable. Looking over the clock is Kandy Neudorfer of Pittsburgh National. ~ Butler Eagle
