Pittman Jewelers Retiring After 62 Years

After 62 years in business, Elton Pittman is retiring after Christmas, closing Pittman Jewelers. Mr. Pittman opened the jewlery store at the corner of Main and Lombard in 1947. He is a founding member of what has become the Downtown Development Association, on which he is winding down his last term, and was involved in the formation of the Clayton Area Chamber of Commerce. He says there are no retirement plans right now other than a "honey-do" list. Pittman's Jewelers is located at 400 E Main Street and is holding a close-out sale on all inventory!
