  See www.shorpy.com/node/1798 Shorpy reckons it's Waldman's music store in Manhattan.

  The caption on the negative is "N.Y. B'd Inst., Co." (New York Band Instrument Co., see www.horn-u-copia.net/Reference/display.php?thisrec=764), I can't see any connection to Waldman's.

  Looking for Waldman ...
  www.victor-victrola.com/NewYork.htm lists a Waldman's Victor/Victrola store at 601 9th Avenue and shows a photograph somewhat similar to the store in but definitely not the same.
  www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-Talking-Machine/20s/... (dated in 1924) also has Waldman's at 601 9th Ave.
  archive.org/details/talkingmachine17bill/page/n135 , an issue of Talking Machine World from July 1921 has a copy of
  and describes it as "a new Victor store at Forty-third street and Ninth Avenue."
  
  I'm thinking that this group of pictures is of at least two separate phonograph stores.
