I have seen this photo in the past, and it showed the store front how it looked at the then current time. It definitely looked different, but was still there as something. I wish I remembered more details.
Also, given the place and the presumed proprietor, this makes me think of the movie Harlem Nights, which is great! Older now, featuring a number of Black actors who aren't around now. Three generations of comedians!
