Original Raley's Location

According to raleys.com, the first Raley's was built in Placerville in 1935. Placerville is a very historic area and many old buildings are around even from the 1800s. Does anyone know the location of the original Raley's within Placerville. I'm assuming it was not built on the site of the current Raley's.

The company history, published in 1989, features an old ad which lists the address merely as "Lower Main Street".

El Dorado County's web site has a page about this store at http://www.co.el-dorado.ca.us/stories/raley.html
According to that page the site was at 111 Main Street, currently occupied by a Coldwell Banker office.
