A pawnshop! by Tim Kiser

A pawnshop!

I need VCRs and CDs and a diamond ring that looks like the one pictured. I do not care about any of the other merchandise. Especially the guns, yuck!

Doesn't the picture of the ring resemble a clothes dryer on a pallet! I bet there's a 9-square grid of concrete openwork hidden underneath it.

We've got us a 1902, with good red glass downstairs from sometime later in the 20c.

The good and wacky tilted windows downstairs are also from sometime later in the 20c.

Upstairs, aren't those three arched windows surmounted by stone hoodmoulds with vertical keystones?

My life will not be long enough for the IOOF to gain my trust. The org was officially whites-only until 1971!
