1. This picture shows a retail company of the early 1930's.
2. Usually the shop occupy two levels and looks quite dark.
3. If you notice carefully, there is a a display at the frontage of the shop.
I believe this shop is selling crockery or porcelain ware.
4. Notice that some of the workers are wearing singlets and working at their desks.
5. Today, many such companies have become wholesalers or sole agents for certain products. There are some which failed and closed down.
In Singapore, it can be quite hot especially if there is no fan. (Air-con was not invented then).
How fortunate we are today with proper lighting and (aircon)!
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
