Seattle Confidential – Nearly Black Friday

This I snapped during a visit to White Front sometime in the 70s.  I no longer remember if the name was joined as one – Whitefront.  I remember being startled by the sign promoting Santa before Thanksgiving and the Sat. Nov. 25th date is a clue at least to possible years that the day that the day that is still two days after Thanksgiving came on a Saturday.   I remember the Niagara Cyclo massagers but neither Ira Blue nor KGO radio.  Here a carboard Ira gives a personal touch to the vibrator.   And last, why there would be a table filled with heads for my inspection, that I don’t remember either.  Now looking back to the second (middle) subject, I wonder if the blonde on the left might have borrowed her big hair from one of these heads.  The White Front building on Aurora near 135th may be a K-Mart now, if it has survived the latest falling.   (Click to Enlarge)
