gizaHere are two of storefronts that I especially liked:
There are 68 more pictures on the Denver Post. The photographs encompass everything from people to places to farms to train yards.
Looking at some of the pictures, it's pretty amazing to see how people lived back then. And all the advertising in the picture with the school children? Yeah, I don't think that'd go over too well today.
