It's Too Late to Roller Skate

Here's another skate-case sticker for you.

I have checked for this business in the directories at the Hobart Historical Society museum. The earliest listing I can find, in a 1952 directory, is a masterpiece of minimalism: "Oak Ridge Roller Dome, Route 6, Ph." — but no phone number is given. Next is a 1956 listing: "Oak Ridge Roller Dome (Donald and Harold Shurr) 37th Ave. [phone number] 82."

A 1962 directory gives the address as "2275 US Hwy 6," naming Harold T. Shurr as president of the business and Daniel Shurr as vice president.

A 1968 directory has no listing for the business, but Harold Shurr's personal listing describes him as president of the Oak Ridge Roller Dome.

By 1970, apparently, it was too late to roller skate.
