Research

The storefront sign reads 'Big Sam Fiorello's Liquor Store' with a 'Kern's Beverages' sign - Kern's was a soda bottled in Trenton, New Jersey, placing this in Trenton's Chambersburg (Little Italy) neighborhood. The phone 'EX. 2-1963' (EXport exchange) fits the early 1960s. This is the storefront behind our Fiorello reel.
