Description

Image is a street scene of people at the front of "Bert's Liquor" store and the "Palmer Cocktail Bar" in Palmer. Three men in dress clothes are in foreground with backs to the camera. A woman stands on the wooden sidewalk facing the camera dressed in a skirt, full length coat and hat. The front fender of a period car is visible in the right foreground. A group of men is gathered in middle ground at right in front of the Bar. U.S. flags are faintly visible at the tops of the buildings suggesting the photo was taken on a day of patriotic celebration.
