Rupert Electric / Rupert Seed & Milling

An early 1906 photograph shows a Flour & Feed store here. Joseph F. Hunt received transfer of land title from the public domain on August 31, 1907 by a special act of Congress. The lot remained empty for several years before wood-frame structures occupied it. The wood-frame Dixon & Long Grocery Store, owned by Harvey Dixon and H. L. Long, was here from the 1910s to the 1920s, together with the wood-frame East Side Cafe.

By the late 1930s, the structures had been converted to brick. Grant Catmull operated the Rupert Seed and Milling Company there, stocking garden supplies, seeds in bulk bins, and seasonal chicks. In the early 1950s, this building and the building to the south were combined into the Country Squire Mall owned by the Catmull Brothers, featuring businesses like Broadhead Furniture, Broadhead Electric, Fashion Follies, and BG's Floral.

Before 1983, the building underwent major remodeling and became The Showkase Place, a furniture and appliance store. The structure features decorative brick dentils supporting a modest cornice with a brick-capped parapet.
