Each week, the Photo of the Day will feature a photo from the Chattanooga Public Library and The Chattanooga Memory Project. This photo features an ad from 1917 for Scott Brothers Electrical Company. It features the two brothers Bob Scott and Emmett Scott. They were pioneer electricians in Chattanooga. The Chattanooga Memory Project was created by the Chattanooga Public Library to capture the city’s history from the perspective of individuals, including current and former residents and visitors to the Scenic City.
