Jackson Hardware Company, Sylva, N.C.

Abstract

It is rare to have a photograph taken of the interior of a store since such a place was not commonly thought to be of exceptional visual interest. Its rarity makes this 1918 image of Jackson Hardware Company all the more valuable. Located in Sylva, North Carolina, store shelves are loaded with useful items, such as knives, spools of thread, clocks, ceramic jugs, and bed warmers
