Description
Photograph of an exterior view of a grocery store in Piercy, ca.1930. A small staircase which leads to the front porch and entrance of the grocery store can be seen on the left behind a large tree. Windows can be seen on either side of the door and a stack of boxes sits to the door's right. The lightly-colored door with the shingled roof has a small fence which leads from the large, overgrown garden on the right. The garden is contained by a rock wall in the foreground with a small trail cutting through to the street. On the left side of the path signs are posted in the trees and can barely be seen due to the leaves and branches.
Picture file card reads " Old grocery store in picturesque setting. An old sign, almost covered by branches and leaves, on which only two words 'Mail Stage' are decipherable".
