Be sure to click to enlarge. Lots of little details. Pure Americana. Life as country folk dealt with it. PAN-AM "Coal oil" drum with pump in the back. Uneeda Graham Crackers along with Nabisco Saltines and VANILLA MARSMALLOW SANDWICHES in the right showcase. Pouches of loose tobacco in the left showcase. Cans of Campbells soup line most of the top left shelf.. Well stocked with VAN CAMPS pork and beans and other vegetables.... Dirt on the boys feet. Taters in the bin. GREEN BEAUTY Pickles in a big jar on right. Candlestick phone by pickles. Big fan high on shelf for cooling.... Cleanest thing in store......shoes on lady in center isle. Cashier wears her smile. Owner ponders sales. "Write me a ticket...... I'll make my mark til the tobacco goes to market". Not your local Walmart.......better
