WEEK 21 – Manifest Closing
For our final interior photo, I’ve saved the best for last: this view takes a look from the front center of the store straight back to the rear wall, and – contrary to my usual M.O. – includes a handful of customers browsing the aisles. I was pleased with how straight this shot turned out (didn’t have to edit it at all!), and also liked how so many of the unique signed ceiling tiles also made it into the frame. Not to toot my own horn, but I could totally see this as a newspaper headline image :P
Re: the signed ceiling tiles… I first told y’all about those very early in the pre-liquidation set from this store, at this photo. To recap, back when this store held in-store concerts, bands were welcome to sign one of the ceiling tiles, making for a very cool tapestry (as it were) overhead. With the store closing, I asked our cashier what would happen to the ceiling tiles, and she told me that customers were actually free to take them (!) so long as they brought in a brand new, like ceiling tile from Lowe’s or Home Depot to replace it with. So, it would still cost them money, but that’s still a darn good deal!

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 :)
