Pictured here is a front and side view of Hirshfield's Ladies' Ready-to-Wear Store at 4th Street and Pine Avenue. A crowd of shoppers wait outside for the store to open. Large display windows occupy the building's street level. On the upper level, a row of small arched windows are spaced close together and wrap around the building. A number of signs are mounted above the picture windows. The highest sign is posted just below the arched windows and reads, "Edwin Hooker Company, Insurance-Leases-Real Estate." Store signs on, and just above, the windows read, "Where Popular Prices Prevail; Watch for the Grand Opening Sale; Hirshfield's Ladies Ready-to-Wear Store, Will Open Here As Soon as Alterations Are Complete, New York, St. Louis, Long Beach;" and "Grand Opening Sale, Dresses $8.95."
