Description
Photograph of exterior view of Von's Market on La Tijera Boulevard near Manchester Boulevard taken from the parking lot, February 11, 1957. A large billboard-sized sign can be seen stretching what appears to be a full story on top of the Market building. The sign says "Von's" in large dark letters next to a windmill with the words "Van de Kamp's Bakery" below. To the right of the sign, the market has large glass windows with drapes that are partially obscured by a large dark-colored fence with foliage coming out of it. At least eight vehicles are visible in the parking lot. A sign at left reads, "Pipe Shop".
