Product Details

Our luxuriously soft blankets are available in two different sizes and feature incredible artwork on the top surface. The bottom surface is white. Our 100% polyester blankets are available in two different styles: plush fleece and sherpa fleece. Plush fleece blankets are soft and fluffy on both sides, whereas sherpa blankets are smooth like a soft sweater on the artwork side (i.e. shorter threads) which provides for a sharper image. Looking for a recommendation? Go with a 60" x 80" plush fleece blanket. It's soft and luxurious on both sides... the artwork looks incredible... and the size is just right for everyone.

First of all thanks so, so much for helping me in my discussion ! I love everything about this series but especially this one. I have a thing for old store fronts, may be reminding me of my grand mother's pictures during war times...

Artist's Description

Colorized photo from 1899
Original title: Only Negro store of its kind in the U.S
Photographer: Thomas Askew
Location: 2933 State St., Chicago, IL

It's interesting that the photographer managed to make everything sharp, except one little spot in the middle of the window. I tried to fix the area between electric and gas, but I was able to only get so much clear.

The premise of the shot was that a sociologist hired a black photographer to show how American black people were actually very successful people and not lazy or follow the stereotypes that seem to haunt them. This was displayed at the Paris Exposition in 1900. About 500 images from around the country were displayed there.

Being that the owner is black, I don't get who the white guys are. There is a second picture from inside and the mustache guy is in that one too. I assume its a partner thing. There isn't any other info about this shop, and currently its being used as a vacant lot.

About Mike Savad

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
