Title supplied by cataloger. Photographer's caption reads, "Antique owner Jonathan Kramer opened "A Touch of Old," in the Desmond's building (1929) in January 2001. He started his business with four years of antiquing experience and a truck load of antiques brought from the east coast, but quickly learned that people in the Wilshire area were far more interested in Art Deco, stream-line modern, and 1950's styles than the "old vintage stuff." He quickly adjusted to what was readily available, and to what people wanted."
