Big Parker Shoe Shop
Bring a little Berlin home.
Unframed Matte Poster · 11 × 14 inches
After the day's comings and goings, a few minutes at home can include looking a little more closely at the wall picture. Workers gather at Berlin's Big Parker Shoe Shop, making the people beside the workplace part of what you notice in the picture.
The Big Parker Shoe Shop and its assembled workers appear in Berlin's town history, published in 1895. The photograph records people together with their workplace. It gives local manufacturing a human setting, preserving a specific shop within the wider story told by the town's illustrated history.
The group keeps local manufacturing at a human scale, a Berlin shop and its workers rather than a general image of industry. Give it space near a favorite chair, where there is time to look more closely at the picture.
