Description

Three tables and a small, wood and glass display case are arranged around the side walls of a small room. Two women, dressed in lacy blouses and long skirts, are standing near the display case. A sign above one of the women reads “Terms strictly cash.” Tablecloths and other linens are displayed on two of the tables. Jewelry, a small clock, a lace-covered pillow and other small items are visible in the display case. A large hat box, resting on its side, may be seen behind one of the tables. The number “75” has been written on the emulsion side of the negative and is visible in the upper right corner of the picture. The number “3” is written in the upper left corner.
