Photo of the Edwards as a garage; Edwards garage. Hence the name. And it’s the Main Street Garage meaning this picture was taken after the building had been moved from another part of town.
Photo of the original Edwards', which had, obviously, been a store previously. Determined it, too, was located on Main Street which should be update in the lead.
Old ad uploaded. Notice the apostrophe, as I set up the site. When the new Edwards opened the apostrophe was a thing of the past.
According to information in the East Hampton Star a number of motion picture operations occurred in East Hampton prior to the Edwards'. The one which prospered longest was run by Cleaves & Strong in a second floor space. Their operation began in 1913 and lasted until they were bought out by Edwards in 1916.
