Description
Glossy black and white photograph showing the interior view of W. L. Graham's store ca. 1890. The London City Directory for 1890 listed the address as 159 Dundas Street (close to the southwest corner of Dundas and Richmond Streets). William L. Graham is the proprietor given and the store provided "Gents' Furnishings, Hats, Caps and Shirt Manufacturer." The four gentlemen in the picture appear to be both sales staff and customers. In the left foreground a selection of neckties hang on a series of racks. Further back in the store on the left side are racks displaying suspenders. On the right side of the store are shelves of hat boxes. A gas fixture is suspended from the ceiling in the foreground.
Notes
The inscription was added to the original photograph in 1939. PG L20
