Black and white photograph of Wilshire Fashions, Inc. located on Main Street in the former Capitol Theatre building. A portion of the store to the left of the Wilshire Fashions entrance and Raritan Valley Kitchens, to the right, are also visible. There are cars parked along the curb and snow piled on the sidewalk.
Photograph used in a March 5, 1979 article in the Home News with the caption: "From Films to Fashion - There's still a marquee outside the building at 35 Main Street in South River. But for the past decade or so it's "Wilshire Fashions" and not "Capitol" that passersby see as they travel up South River's Main Street."
The back of the photograph has handwritten notes in red ink: "1," "South River Industry," and "3/79."
