Original Title: Italian grocery store owned by the Ronga brothers
Photographer: Marjory Collins
Location: 106 Mulberry St., NY
If pictures were scented... Use your mind's nose and take a sniff... All those meats and cheeses, you can smell it, that rich aroma of nutty cheeses, smoked meats, peppery scents, all mixed together into one scent, the scent of Italy.
This however is Little Italy, a small shop located on Mulberry St, owned by the Ronga brothers. It was a grocery store for a spell, they sold cheese and meats obviously. Along with baby food, flour, mops, and all the Roma based tomato products you can carry. I'd say this store is 40% tomato cans in some variation and in every brand.
