  Wow I love it. July 1936 is the calendar date. Just month before my mom and dad met.

• Infrogmation of New Orleans said:

  Packaged and loose goods are stacked on shelves and the floor. Items visible on the walls include a calendar showing "July 1936" and a Coca-Cola advertisement. Visible items for sale include loose dishes, lanterns, dustpans, rope, padlocks, boxed soaps, boxes of shot-gun shells, Mason jars, canned goods, bags of self-rising flour. Rolls of butcher-paper visible at left. A safe is at center, partially behind bags of flour.

• skillful north said:

  And don't forget the shotgun shells. There are boxes and boxes of them.

• setfreestacy said:

  Amazing. Coca Cola is still branded the same way..totally recognizable in 2009.

• David said:

  I'd love to have a couple of those lanterns.
