Willis Staup stands in front of the Gypsum Garage. This photo was taken around 1918, as evidenced by the poster to the left of the door. This poster, titled, "Beat back the hun with liberty bonds," was first published in 1918, and was created by Frederick Strothmann. Staup enlisted in the United States Army on October 2, 1917, and served mainly in France and Germany during World War I. He was honorably discharged on April 29, 1919.
