Excerpt from The Archive, Vol. 44: October 1931Outside the narrow door, upon the sidewalks of High Street itself the green grocery, with its faded green and red sign, shows to the passing world its realistic announcement of farmers' produce, tomatoes, corn, beans, piled high upon improvised shelves of pine board laid across wooden horses for the long summer season, replacing them with boxes of odd-sized oranges and slowly ripen ing bananas and slightly wilted cab bages, buried the summer before, when the frost begins to mellow the golden pumpkins, pronounced' punk ins, and the tricky persimmon.Any one who has lived in a small town will feel at home in mine, there are certain ineradicable marks of kin ship between villages, differing only in degree and locality.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
