Belle Glade (vicinity), Florida. January 1939.
In the state of Florida which segregated transport, schools and marriage strictly, this restaurant sign looks strange. It is good business practice to serve all customers, perhaps the patrons will have to sit in different parts of the house. The manager seems to be a person with a sense of humour, to choose a promising name Choke’em down.
Environs de Belle Glade, Floride. Janvier 1939.
Une ambiance de vacances au bord de la mer, dans les dunes derrière la plage naturelle de Floride, un restaurant offrant du poisson et des fruits de mer promet des rations généreuses. Si un panneau indique que l’on sert tous les clients (White & colored served), le service se fait peut-être dans des espaces séparés.
