Washington, D.C., circa 1935. "Food supplies, interior of D.G.S. store." One of several District Grocery Stores in the capital; there's a P Street address on the burlap sack. The White Rose brand seems especially well represented on these shelves.

One of the comments mentions familiar names .. Mueller's, Aunt Jemima, French's, Campbell's, Domino, Kraft, Lea & Perrins, Wheatena, Oxydol

I thought the key in the door tied to the handle with a piece of string an interesting detail. One way of not letting the key get lost.
