Print, Photographic
Sepia-toned photograph taken of a row of storefronts, including a grocery store, a store selling confectionaries and tobacco, and a lunch counter, possibly on Oakland Avenue between Kenilworth Street and Westminster Street. A man in a suit and a man in a chef's jacket stand in the doorway of the restaurant, as two women in matching aprons, a man in a cap and jacket, and two boys pose outside. A boy selling newspaper stands outside the confectionary, where signs advertise the Detroit Times, the Dziennik Polski, Redman Tobacco, and R.G. Dun cigars. The number 734 is posted on the store's door. Two girls and a man stand on the sidewalk near its windows. A store advertising vegetables and fish is on the far left, where a man and two boys stand on the sidewalk. Streetcar tracks run along the brick-paved street in the foreground. "March 27 - 1926," is handwritten in the lower left corner.
