Description

Photograph of Morris Nagel Versatogs and Adele California buildings, ca.1948. In the foreground, a wide street can be seen extending from left to right. On the opposite side of the street, a line of automobiles can be seen parked along the curb. A tall lamppost stands nearby. Adjacent to the street, two large, connected buildings are visible. A row of small windows runs along the upper floor of both buildings, and the exterior is nearly identical between the two. The sign on the building at left reads: "Adele California". The sign outside the building at right reads: "Morris Nagel Versatogs". Both stores are clothing manufacturers. Several utility lines run above the storefronts. As of December 2014, both buildings are still extant.
