Description

Las Tiendas Market, probably by Graham Photo Company, ca. 1929. The view is of the Spanish Colonial Revival-style structure, which has an open stall portion at the right and a closed-in area with plate glass windows and a door at the left, above which is a second-floor area, perhaps housing with a sign containing the market's name, on the roof. A few cars are parked in front of the store and there is a name "Ridgeway Road" painted on the curb at the intersection, so the location could be at Huntington Drive in San Marino. With minor soiling and edge wear, the condition is good.
