At first I thought that was a screencap from Godfather I. That's a really cool photo.

The color in these photographs are stunning, especially given that they are 60-70 years old.
I should have captioned these photos, this is a grocery in Lincoln, NE.
Wow. Thanks for posting the link.
Every picture is fascinating in one way or another.
WOW.
God DAMN there are a lot of great photos on that site.
Thanks for the heads-up. There's certainly a lot of inspiration there. I kinda wish they had even bigger scans available.
