Description

A set of three photos (Frame #33-35) showing four male employees cleaning (mopping up water?) the floors of a housewares store. Based on what can be seen, the store sold bedspreads, towels, rugs, lawn chairs, pampers, kitchen equipment, toys, drapes and curtains. The linoleum floor appears wet.

Context

Photos show a store in Lacey in 1973. They are likely showing either prep for a new opening or an event (water pipe problem?) at that time.
