Erastus Scott May and family, merchants

Title

Erastus Scott May and family, merchants

Description

Black and white image of a family standing on the porch of a general store. The ad for 'White River Flour' dominates the pediment above the porch, with 'Again at your grocers' written above it. A door that appears to lead into living quarters is on the image right, and a good number of boxes and bales are piled about, as if they had just arrived with their belongings. One window displays stacked cans of foodstuffs while the other has a display of hats.
