Scatter's Barbecue, 1954

Scatter's Barbecue, 1954
Scatter's Barbecue opened in 1952 at 929 E.105th St., where Scatter's relatives assisted in managing the barbecue restaurant. The restaurant was sandwiched between the Twentieth Century Tavern and the Silk Top Barber Shop. When the Silk Top Barber Shop closed, Scatter opened a cigarette and vending company in the location, where it would be convenient for him to go back and forth between his businesses. When Scatter was murdered, he was shot in cigarette and vending company store, stumbled out and walked to his barbecue restaurant, passing out on his restaurant's floor. | Source: Cleveland Public Library Photographic Collection
