The Corner Store

by Albert Idell

The 1930s in Philadelphia on the corner of Camac and McClellan finds you at the corner store. It is a gathering place for the neighbors as well as the six Joneses, an institution—one like that found in many neighborhoods in the 1930s. Life is exciting, full of adventure, romance, crime, births, deaths, marriages, elopements—all told with humor and honesty of the problems and triumphs of ordinary people.
