Ellisons
– The Fair Department Store – The first Fair Store was opened in Minot
in 1902 on Main Street, in a location next to and south of what is now Western
paint. It was like most stores of the time with a 25 foot frontage. In 1910 the
Ellisons moved the store a block south into a new building known as The Fair
Block, just south of the intersection of Main Street and 2nd Avenue.
In 1929 a newer building was added at the corner and adjacent to The Fair Block.
The new building, a large 2 story building with a basement, eventually
incorporated The Fair Block in 1955 giving Ellisons a 100 foot store front on
Main Street. During the Diamond Jubilee in 1961, Ellisons ran a contest to see
who could bring in the oldest sales slip showing merchandise purchased at the
store. The winner received a wool blanket…. Unfortunately I do not know who won
or how old the receipt was.
