Title

[Hardware Store Storefront]

Creator

Hoffman, Peter B.

Description

A hardware storefront window that is presumably G.F. Kleih Sons Hardware Store. There is a globe in the right pane window which says, "The Favorite Store of Dubuque: G.F. Kleih Sons." The storefront is separated into three panes. The tight pane has Mobileoil lubricant stacked up into a pyramid. The middle window pane has the same cans of lubricant with a large sign that reads, "Mobioleoils: a grade for each type of motor" and some words are cut off. Below this is a sign that reads, "junk" with mechanical parts siting out. The left pane window has the same lubricant stacked and to the left of these is leather razor strops from the Irwin Leader Goode Company.
