Love this shot! It reminds me of more recent works by @karramarro@pixelfed.social in Bilbao, which I stumbled over on Pixelfed the other day.
You should post some of those to !inhabitedbeauty@lemmy.world !
Nice community! Took you up on it. :)
Would be nice to find a way to locate this place on Google maps.
Great photo thanks.
645? Is that a street number?

Here a link to a more recent picture.
Milk was $0.06. Six cents! I can’t make out the units in the photo, I’ll assume maybe a pint or half gallon. That is super cheap even adjusting for inflation. It would still only be $1.34 in 2024 dollars.
I mean, I pay about 1.50 for a half-gallon, so that seems right to me
Ha wow, maybe it’s just my area here in MA - it’s rare to see half gallons at less than $3 nowadays.
That’s convenience store milk prices to my eyes! Highway robbery
I bet eggs were cheaper.

Two books about the owner of a Harlem furniture store, circa 1960-1980.
The hero is a member of the community who wants to do right, respect the law and his neighbors.
So, every once in a while he has to fence some stolen jewelry or help a crooked cop rob some numbers spots, but basically he’s almost 100% honest.
