This building at the corner of Broadway and Stophlet Street in Fort Wayne is home to an antiques and used clothing store called "Little Shop of Laura's."

The old stucco building has had a huge number of businesses in it over the years. None seem to last long for some reason, and it has sat empty for long periods as well. Laura told me that her husband has owned the building for 30 years, and her shop was very busy when I visited, so she will be here for a long time.

The day before I photographed it, the store's owner painted the glider-rocker bench next to the building to look like the American flag. The arched alcove that the bench sits in front of used to be a door with an iron gate over it. That's been removed and the door boarded up.

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.
