Sepia-toned photo of the women's outer wear department within Crowley Milner's, taken from a photo album of air conditioning installations done by the Detroit Ice Machine Company in 1937. A table of coat sweaters are in the foreground. Racks of coats, fall jackets, suits, sport coats, fur coats, skirts, and discounted spring coats and suits are in the background. Vents are visible nears the top of the walls. "M-2018," is printed in the lower right corner of the photo, corresponding to the description "Air Duct Women's Wearing Apparel Dept.," on the table of contents page (2008.039.003). The photo is mounted on a linen photo album page with a flap on the left hand side with three holes for binding.
