Order an Image
Many children enjoy playing store and selling things. The children in this photo, taken about 1921, have quite a complete grocery store to play with. Some products were sold by weight, and the boy is measuring out something on a scale. The girl holds her shopping basket while she watches her doll in the wicker doll carriage.
