Photo of a wall in an old general store. The wall is lined with wooden shelves filled with various items; cigarettes, canned food, car oil, plates and cups, wood glue, and blankets. Right in the middle of the shelves is an opening to see the tiled wall behind that has the word "M. Crow" in red tile. There is wood cabinetry below the shelves that is filled with different types of candy; M&M's, Skittles, Butterfinger, Almond Joy, and Crunch bars amongst others. There is a small wooden ladder reaching diagonally across the picture in the top left corner.

Small electronics booth that is covered wall to wall in various electronics. There is a man wearing a pink collared shirt and glasses reading a paper in the small alcove opening. Behind him on the wall are wooden shelves filled top to bottom with colorful boxes. The wall with the opening for the man has unrecognizable objects and packages hanging all over it. The walls on either side have shelves filled top to bottom with AM/FM radios and other random electronics taking up every inch of space. The bottom of the booth is covered in small colorful boxes, some look like disposable cameras, but most of the boxes are at such an angle you can't tell what they are.

Inside view of an old library. The shot is very symmetrical, floor to ceiling bookcases line the right and left sides that have a white column on each end topped with a marble bust. Halfway down each of the bookcases are two round wall lights. Hanging from the ceiling are six lights. The ground floor in the middle has two sets of bookcases on either side with a large opening space in the middle. There is a staircase in the middle headed down to another part of the library. The white back wall has a set of french doors in the middle and two white doors on either side.
