The History of "Krebs Service in Michigan City, Indiana."

Joe and Frank M. Krebs opened for business in 1926. The 1927 Michigan City directory lists the business located at 121 W. Fifth Street, but in 1928 they moved to the northeast corner of Michigan and Washington streets. This location is now a parking lot.
