Description

With his back to the camera, a man may be seen working at a long table in this view of a wholesale grocery storeroom. Stacks of wooden boxes, some labeled “Bull Durham,” are visible along the left wall, as are two handcarts, seen in the right foreground. A roll of wrapping paper on a stand may be seen on another table. A glass partition may be seen along the rear wall of the space. More boxes are stacked near the partition. See KL183-198 for another view from the opposite side of this partition. The number “214” has been written on the emulsion side of the negative and is visible in the upper right corner of the picture. No number has been written in the upper left corner.
