Furniture, old glass, china, lamps, brass, etc. OLD TREASURES YOU'D LIKE TO LIVE WITH. Closed Monday & Tuesday. Techniphoto. Henry McGrew Printing, K.C. Mo., 61038, Action Color Adv., 2502 SE Belmont, Portland, Ore., 234-3689. I did some research, but couldn't find any history of this shop or the folks who ran it, alas. So the date range is just a guess. There's no phone area code listed, and Oregon got its first one in 1947. But this card looks much more recent than that. Anyway, off to the more important stage: turning it into a pixel-art game where a cat raids the shop and you have to distract them before they can break everything. :D Slightly enlarged to show detail.

I love everything about this image. The glassware, the "leafy green" sweater, the fact that they left the model's hair naturalistic enough to not suggest an aluminum helmet... Everything. From the Central Radio Club in Prague, Czechoslovakia to W7BDU in Portland, Oregon.

Lack of color doesn't get in the way of the Pre-Sixties trippy factor at all. Wooo!
