We know the date of this photograph from the movie playing in the Neptune Theater. It was "West Point Widow," starring Anne Shirley and Richard Carlson. The store sold Texaco Gas at this time as can be seen from the Texaco star and fire hats on the pumps. One could send telegrams from here via Western Union. The automobiles parked at the side of the building were a 1939 Plymouth sedan and a 1935 Chevrolet coupe.
