Featuring glorious new reproductions of images from their past books as well as never-before published photos, this elegiac volume will delight the Murrays multitude of fans, as well as anyone interested in the charm and history of small urban retail. Large in format and filled with color and affectionate detail, the book includes an introduction by the Murrays explaining the genesis of their lifelong project and why they love to photograph store fronts.
