Temporary Quarters
[cartoon reading: "TEMPORARY ENTRANCE BANK SEPT. 1963"]
During the remodeling project, it was necessary
that we vacate the main banking area. We were
fortunate to have space in the building to estab-
lish our temporary office, thus preventing a move
to quarters in another building. The patience,
understanding and cooperation of our customers
during this period have been sincerely appreciated.
The first step in the remodeling was the construc-
tion of a new and more adequate vault. This work
was started on July 15, 1963. The banking office
was moved to the basement area in September
1963, where business was conducted in what was
known as "the bargain basement." The entire re-
modeling operation lasted exactly eight months to
"ribbon cutting day."

The Building During Construction
This picture was taken approximately fifty years
ago when the building was being constructed.
Carbide street lights, steam engines and handle
bar mustaches were normal sights to be seen on
Sandusky Street. Construction techniques were
greatly different from our modern day methods.
Quality of workmanship and strength of materials
in the original construction presented several
problems in our remodeling program which de-
layed completion.

On October 7, 1950, Delaware's Home Owned,
Home Controlled Bank opened for business. Six-
teen men organized a group of people to establish
a second bank in Delaware, and were elected as
the first board of directors when the bankw as char-
tered. The first banking office was established
in the present County Bank Building which was
then the Peoples Building, and occupied less than
half of the first floor area. Judge Fred J. McAlli-
ster was the first president of the bank.
And now [arrow]
Today we are proud to open our newly remodeled
Downtown Office, designed to provide for our
customers' comfort, convenience, and service.
The enlarged lobby and banking area occupy the
entire first floor of the building plus additional
space on the mezzanine and in the basement.
Modern fixtures and decoration have been com-
bined to contribute to the attractiveness of the
downtown business area.

The desire to indicate the interest of the bank in
activities of the community, prompted the placing
of four paintings in the lobby area, representing
religion, education, agriculture and the county
fair which attracts attention each year to the grand
circuit racing event, The Little Brown Jug.
Mr. Richard A. Wengenroth, Assistant Professor
of Fine Arts at Ohio Wesleyan University, has re-
alistically depicted these subjects in his paintings
of scenes in Delaware and the surrounding area.
The choice of a local artist, talented to execute
this idea for the bank, underscores the resolution
of interest in the community which fostered the
founding of the Home Owned, Home Controlled
Bank in Delaware.

In addition to providing more comfort and conveni-
ence for our customers, modern fixtures have been
installed to increase and improve our service. A
New and Larger Vault, equipped with the most mod-
ern alarm system and protective vault door has
been constructed to protect the money, records
and valuable personal property of our customers.
The new Walk-Up Window in the vestibule will be
open for after-hour deposit and loan payment trans-
actions. The vestibule also encloses a new 24
Hour Night Depository, protected from the weather
and well lighted for depositing bags or envelopes
when the bank is closed. The new conference
room will afford privacy for the closing of loans,
opening of depository boxes in estate matters or
other business of a confidential nature. The en-
larged lobby area provides adequate space and
facilities to handle peak customer loads. These
are but a few of the many services made possible
by our remodeling and expansion.
