Liquor Stores

What would Market Street be without a single bar? Hard to imagine, isn't it? But that is what Frederick was like when Roscoe Bartlett was born. In fact, the whole country was like that, because Roscoe was born during Prohibition. In 1920, the 18th Amendment to the Constitution was passed, and it prohibited the sale of alcohol for consumption. Of course, that didn't stop organized crime from selling the stuff, and eventually cooler heads prevailed. In 1933, the 21st Amendment repealed the 18th Amendment.
