Listerine store display

  These are great -- who would they have been shot for originally?

• The Library of Virginia said:

  Thanks! There was a local Richmond company that made cardboard store displays - I think this was probably shot for them to show their product in use.

  This is the first photo I've seen in the entire set where both black and white people are present.

• Dan4th Nicholas said:

  @donovanbeeson: I was just thinking the same thing

• perfgeek said:

  I cannot find a Union Street in DC - perhaps it got "redeveloped." What I did find though was someone selling this very image on eBay under the title "1941 Union St. WASHINGTON DC Photo"

  This one has both black and white folks in it (white girl with her dog off to the right watching the black boys play football). www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2179178872/

The Chieftains or Rory Gallagher?

  Well, I'd have to be honest and say my eye is drawn more to the street lighting! There's two of the famous 1930s concrete Sofrapel columns, made in France, with Holophane lanterns; and the shop facade has two GEC 'Clearmain' lanterns that must have very fully illuminated that pavement!

• Carol Maddock said:

  That VW van has a reg. no. BZL. My dad's car was BZU 232, early 70s I think.

• Foxglove said:

  Rory Gallagher.... left me partially deaf every November

  An earlier view via Dublin Architecture However, the destruction continues, now a Holiday Inn flic.kr/p/2pewufV

  Both. And you could pay at the door, rather than being ripped off by some online site. The fashions and the bus stop sign look like early 1970s.
