Print Emporium
I.G.A.: 1941
August 1941. "General store in Hinesburg, Vermont." Medium format negative by Jack Delano for the Farm Security Administration. View full size.
The Inevitable Car
Of course, there's a Subaru passing in the modern streetview image.
Hinesburg is an increasingly suburban area but still has quite a bit of working farmland for how close to Burlington it is.
The Orthochromatic Blues
If it was orthochromatic film the blue sky would have been washed out.
IGA's were everywhere
I remember when IGA stores were in almost every little town. When I grew up in Loomis, Nebraska, the IGA was a block from our house and up until 1975 we made our weekly grocery trips there. You could get an after-school pop there. It closed in the early 90s.
Orthochromatic film?
The sign at the top, carefully lit with a half-dozen lights but without seeming to have any words or images could conceivably have been caused by blue paint on a white background, if it was photographed by orthochromatic film, which was still sometimes used at this time.

The Dors of Perception
1936 Ford Fordor Touring Sedan. Yes, Ford spelled it Fordor & Tudor.
