I have shot this before, but I always shoot it again because its so dang awesome with that vitrolite!
Stockton, CA is one of my all time favorite places to shoot! They have so many wonderful old and vantage things!
UPDATE!!! 2011 These storefronts have been replaced by icky modern ones... boo...
This East Village institution located directly across the street from Tompkins Square Park has been in business 24 hours a day since 1974. When we took this photo and interviewed Ray for our book “Store Front II-A History Preserved” he told us that “I was working behind the counter when there was the tent ⛺️city at the park and even stayed open during the famous riot in 1988 and many of the protesters were my regulars.” Ray and @rayscandystore definitely has seen the neighborhood surrounding it change dramatically and we are happy to report that it is still going strong 💪!
The Crooks Company, a public warehouse firm, was founded in Chicago

Crooks Terminal Warehouse Company erected an Art Deco warehouse
We love that this #delicatessen kept its #vintage Coca-Cola #privilegesign. In the 1930s and 40s, these #signs were very prevalent around the city as they were given free to store owners who agreed to sell Coca-Cola products. Unfortunately many of these Coca-Cola signs have been replaced. #storefront #signgeeks #typevstime #signcollective #ig_signage #everything_signage #dailytype
Joe & John Pizzeria & Restaurant on Myrtle Avenue in Ridgewood, Queens was founded in 1968. We really loved its unique retro facade adorned with yellow and mint green-colored panels giving it a sort of big-top circus 🎪 look. Although the #pizza place is still in business, the original Joe and John have long retired and new owners and management took over the #pizzeria and modernized the exterior and replaced the #vintage #signage. We photographed the #storefront at night for our book “New York Nights” but also took a daytime photo which appears in our book “Store Front II-A History Preserved".

The storefront for Omega Mart, a surrealist art exhibit. Many of the products can actually be purchased.
1910 postmarked postcard view of a street fair in Flora, Indiana. This was a view of Center Street looking north from the southwest corner at the Columbia Street intersection. A huge crowd had gathered for the celebration.
A sign on the brick column near the left edge of the postcard identified the location of the Flora Post Office on the northwest corner of the intersection. The 1917 Sanborn™ fire insurance map set for Flora shows the post office at that location. Nearby, a performer wearing a top hat stood on a makeshift stage. A stool and a dog were on the stage as well.
A banner at the far end of the street advertises RAG-TIME SENSATION. A Ferris wheel stood next to that banner. This was north of the Main Street intersection. The sign above the entrance on that northeast corner advertised the TRUST CO. The 1917 map set shows that business at that location. Near the center of this scene were three banners. Two advertised CAPTURE OF ANGOLA GORILLA and MAN GORILLA MISSING LINK. The bottom of that latter banner announced POSITIVELY ALIVE. The lettering on the nearest of the banners is unclear.
This image was created by Thomas Keesling from a postcard courtesy of the Indiana Postal History Society.

Mill Race Village in Northville, Michigan has a nice collection of historic buildings that have been saved from demolition and moved here to form a small outdoor living history museum. This fashionable display was in front of the J. M. Mead General Store when I took my photo on September 6, 2013.
All of my Michigan photos can be found in these collections: Michigan

Outside Jones' General Store in Greenfield Village. The store was built in 1857 in Waterford, Michigan (north of Detroit). J. R. Jones owned the story in the 1880s.
A message to thieves is written on the doors to a small church occupying a former store in Detroit. A sign on the building says "The True Missionary Baptist Church."
Here's the new Mars storefront sign, with illustrations cobbled together from assorted pulp sci-fi covers and a Frazetta illustration. Having gotten approval for a basic pencil sketch of this layout, I had little idea of how to go about brushing it in, full size, in timely enough fashion to fit our bid. So, I saddled Josh and Caitlyn with improvising the details of the Martian, his landscape and the warrior babe, while I focussed on the lettering, and spattering stars around in space. I'm thrilled that the whole thing worked out on budget, and that I didn't have to worry about any of the illustration stuff, other than to bark out suggestions from time to time.

Of all the storefronts in Daikanyama, this is to me is the most interesting since it tells an unexpected side of Japanese culture.
A few days after this shot was taken we were having dinner with an old friend Justin in Kyoto. He was telling of the lack of education around contraception and protection from sexually transmitted diseases amongst prostitutes in Japan. He mentioned that there was an abundance of what are called ladies clinics in major cities that provide abortion services as a de facto form of contraception. He said these clinics are used by all women, not just prostitutes.
Of course I hadn't noticed any ladies clinics - and Justin was surprised since they are apparently abundant. It wasn't until I was sitting at home going through my shots in Aperture, selecting images to post to Flickr, that I spotted the "Daikanyama Ladys Clinic" in amongst the other images of fashionable boutiques posted in this session. It would appear the name of the shop was only in English, not in Kanji.
It would be like having an abortion clinic on the main shopping strip in Double Bay.
Old storefront in the Kinkerstraat. These old storefronts are more and more lost in Amsterdam. Love the old fonts as well. I can find this store still open in 1992. It's been like this since 2010 (!).
