This is Anybody's Market, a quaint corner store in a small tight knit town. It was owned by Ernest Carreiro, an immigrant from Portugal. He opened this store when he arrived, ran it until he died in 1961, and his son by the same name took over and ran it till 1966, then it became a restaurant called Tip-for-Tops'n Restaurant, it lasted till 2013, now its Liz's Cafe, most of these old buildings still exist around it.
They sold canned goods of one specific brand, fruit, veggies, deli meat, cake, donuts, bread, seed and dog food. They also clearly sold cream, and all sorts of milk.
