The Original
by Hillel
I’m pretty sure the short guy with his back to the camera is my great grandfather. The Jacksons are not exactly a tall folk. Note the scary carp(?) drawing on the left window. I think the sign on the right window under the words “Jackson’s — Quantity Quality & Varieties” says “Live Carp”. Where else are you going to get the ingredients for your famous smoked fish if not at Jackson Fish Market.
I’m not sure exactly where the developers sat. Probably somewhere in the back.

I wonder if these stores are down the street or around the corner from JFM.
