Deli (and Signless Bakery)
WEEK 31 – Brinkley Kroger
Rounding the seemingly-unrounded corner, we arrive at our last department of the stour: the deli. Technically, this service counter also houses the bakery, too. The poor bakery just doesn't get any signage here :( And speaking of signage, is it just me, or does the grid pattern behind the lettering look slightly warped and discolored? I believe l_dawg2000 pointed out the same thing at the formerly wannabe neon store in Batesville, MS. Note also the cool stair-railing window separating the service counter from the back prep room! EDIT: ...which is very likely a superstore décor remnant!! See comments for more...
Given how narrow the actionway was in this area, I don't recall there being too many display tables crowding the aisle out in front of the department here, although there was at least one table of baked goods judging by the bottom foreground of the photo above. Let me also point out how odd the deli placement is in this store: just beyond dairy, and not even backing up to the front right corner of the store. Rather, if you can imagine this store from above, this deli-bakery pretty much juts out like an island from the middle of the store's right-side wall, with the area on the opposite side of it from where we're looking here housing the store's offices and entry...

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
