The Thirteenth Avenue Retail Market is the setting here, a place where local growers and small merchants sold goods directly to city shoppers. The view is taken from outside, so the street frontage and the people gathered near the entrance are the main things to study. Markets of this kind were once a regular part of daily life in American towns, supplying households with produce, dairy and household goods before supermarkets became common. Look closely at the signage, the building's construction and the clothing of those passing by for clues about the decade in which it was made.
