EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1942 with this print of Grand Grocery Co. in Lincoln, Nebraska. Taken by the talented photographer John Vachon, this image offers a glimpse into the bustling atmosphere of an American grocery store during the 1940s. The storefront proudly displays a variety of products available for purchase, including Better Loaf flour, potatoes, apples, chewing and smoking tobacco, soft drinks like Pepsi-Cola and 7UP, oranges, grapefruit, and even Rice Krispies breakfast cereal. The vibrant colors captured in this still image bring to life the rich tapestry of goods that were essential to daily life at that time. Located on a quaint street corner in Lincoln's historic district, Grand Grocery Co. stands as a testament to America's agricultural heritage and its thriving economy during World War II. This photograph was part of the Farm Security Administration collection housed at the Library of Congress. As you admire this piece from Heritage Images' collection by John Vachon, let your imagination transport you back to an era when small businesses played a vital role in communities across the United States. Appreciate how this snapshot encapsulates not only a specific location but also represents an entire country united by resilience and resourcefulness.
