The store is a brick building with front windows that have numerous advertisements including Pabst Blue Ribbon beer, Picwick Ale, Kool-Aid and Coca Cola. Tydol gas pumps are in front of the store by the curb. A vinatge car is parked on the left hand side of the building. The enclosure sleeve of the negative has the store identified as Towles General Store and earlier views by Eastern Illustrating show the store then as A.P. Gram & Son store.
