Looks a lot like my shop. Main difference is my parts are mostly used.

Re: OLD PHOTO - Model T Era Auto Parts Store Room
I'd love to walk in there and buy period parts at period prices.

I think we all do!
The future of our hobby does not depend as much on youth, but on the future of internal combustion.

Re: OLD PHOTO - Model T Era Auto Parts Store Room
The unframed picture in the left foreground appears to be a painting of men in a canoe. Another item looks like a grocer's scale. Maybe that's a general store just after a delivery of new stock. The overhead lighting is pretty fancy for a dedicated store room.

This defines the aera and leaves "what's in the boxes" to our imaginations.
Wonderful to see.
Thanks

Re: OLD PHOTO - Model T Era Auto Parts Store Room
I noticed the scales too. Not too many T parts I can recall are sold by weight. I think they may have sold other stuff as well.

Re: OLD PHOTO - Model T Era Auto Parts Store Room
Maybe that's a freight office on a very busy day. There appear to be several wheeled platforms with pipe railings loaded with stuff. There's an item that looks like a canvas bin that might be for smaller items. Maybe the train just unloaded, or is just about to arrive to be loaded.

Re: OLD PHOTO - Model T Era Auto Parts Store Room
There's a place in Baldwinville MA that has a back room and basement that looks a lot like that picture...... could it be time travel?

Re: OLD PHOTO - Model T Era Auto Parts Store Room
Could it be a shipment of parts and etc that hasn’t been stocked or put up yet? But maybe that’s the way this store operated.
