On the cover: Paris City Dry Cleaning Company, named for the European city where the chemical cleaning process was invented, was established in Springfield in 1909. The company founders considered the number 13 lucky and put it on all the service vehicles and in their phone number. The company later changed its name to Paris Cleaners Incorporated, with headquarters now across the street from where this large facility stood at Ash Street and Yale Boulevard.
