Nashville, TN Berry's Loan Pawnbrokers
Fourth Avenue (originally Cherry Street) east for a block was called the Men's Quarter with the heart of the Quarter being Printer's Alley. Printer's Alley was a series of bars and "other" establishments that served the more reputable places on Fourth Avenue. Nashville was a "dry town" starting in 1909 but the establishments still thrived. In 1939, purchasing liquor became legal except for by drink so most places allowed their patrons to bring in their own bottles.
