A horizontal black-and-white photograph depicts the upper two-thirds of a storefront, featuring a large sign with an illustration of two fish and a fishing boat that reads, "PAVIA | BROS. | We Deliver | PHONE.851 | SEA / FOODS | Served Here | CURB SERVICE." The tops of automobiles and a sign for a store on the left of the image, with text that reads "CONFECTIONERY | AND | FOUNTAIN | SERVICE," are just barely visible.
