The first thing I noticed about this small secondhand shop was the large 48-star American flag on the wall, which is visible through the front window in the evenings. The store's owner said it came from the USS Hoist (ARS-40), a U.S. Navy ship that he served on in the 1980s, though the flag itself is quite a bit older.

A sign in the window says: "WARNING. Due to price increase on ammo, do not expect a warning shot."

It was raining when I photographed this place, which is on Goshen Road, just north of State Boulevard, in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Purchase Prints
by Christopher Crawford

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.

Credit card payment is handled through Paypal. You do not have to have a Paypal account. When you checkout, you will be taken to Paypal's site. If you have a Paypal account, sign in and approve the payment.

If you do not have a Paypal account, and do not want to sign up for one, there is a link on the Paypal page that says "Don't have a Paypal Account?" Click it to pay without signing up. It will accept your credit card like a normal credit card payment.

Prints usually ship within 7 days. This allows time for me to make your print, and if you have ordered a framed print, to frame and mat it.

Thank you for supporting my work.
