1940's: TRACY'S LEGENDARY "FIVE AND DIME"

This was originally a black and white photo which happens to be a place I hold dear to my heart. I, and many others were regular visitors to this charming place where one could find anything from knitting needles to dish cloths to curtains and curtain rods...and let's not forget their toy department. This photo led me to the decision to revive my love of coloring books when I was a boy, and I used my photo enhancing software to hand color the old black and white and bring a delightful memory back to life in living color. I even had the option to give myself the green light in the foreground!
