Damrell & Upham — Booksellers
Jon sent this photo he found on Shorpy. There are a few really nice ampersands hidden away in this image—which is too huge to post and too detailed to shrink down.
The caption on shorpy:
Boston, Massachusetts, circa 1900. “Old Corner Bookstore, first brick building in Boston.” Detroit Publishing Company 8×10 glass negative.
Categorised as: ampersands I like, there is an ampersand in there somewhere
I know I’m supposed to like the ampersands, but I find the people caught standing in the windows much more compelling in this photograph. You don’t often see them so clearly, if at all.
I forgot to file this in the “there is an ampersand in there somewhere category.”
