Roger's Men's Clothing Store, Morristown, TN c. 1962.
My grandfather, Bob Sawyer, is pictured in the upper right in front of the hat display. Athletic shirts were on sale, 3 for $2.00. Getting a gumball from the machine next to the cash register was a huge treat for us.

What great quality this picture has!
ReplyDeleteI remember shopping in a store like this not that long ago (80's). It's a real shame these types of stores are so hard to find nowadays. Nice photo!.
ReplyDeleteis that a picture of the founder in the photo over the door, wearing a hat?
ReplyDeleteIt is Kristin. The original photograph shows the whole floor with Mr. Rogers in the middle of the store, but I cropped the photo to show Granddaddy more.
ReplyDeleteLook how tidy the store was...
ReplyDeleteAnd I bet you got personalized service.
I keep going back to this, and now I'll comment. This may seem like an old photo to some...but to me, it is almost current, you see, I graduated from H.S. in 1962 (I know, hard to believe)!
