North grain elevator at the A. E. Staley Manufacturing Company in 1945. The letters are fifteen feet tall. At the time this was the largest sign in Decatur. The letters were painted by Thomas Price of the A. E. Price Company Of Decatur Illinois. He slipped high in the air at one point during the painting but quickly got his balance and finished the job without incident. Staley, Elevator, Thomas, Balance, Job, Manufacturing

1892-1897 The Mueller gun and sporting goods shop was relocated to 134 East Prairie Street in Decatur in 1892, around the corner from its previous location at 138 Market Street. By 1896 the manufacturing business had grown to demand the full attention of the family, so the gun and sporting goods shop was sold. Market Street, Office Plants, Local History, Aurora, Gun

1872-1895 The fourth Mueller site in Decatur was a newly constructed brick building a 220-222 East Main Street in Decatur. It was in this building that the business emphasis changed from gunsmithing to plumbing goods and the company we know today began to emerge. By 1880 the gun shop was sharing space with plumbing, gas and steam fittings. It changed from the gun shop to H. Mueller Manufacturing Co. Brick Building, Main Street, Cemetery, Rays
