There was a time when most of the Thanksgiving grocery shopping in Easton, Maryland, was done in this area of North Washington Street! The A&P and the Acme Market were across from each other on North Washington Street! The Acme was right next to the Calvary Methodist Church, which was the home of the Easton YMCA, when this picture was taken by professional photographer H. Robins Hollyday. Mr. Hollyday lived in the house next to church so this picture may have been taken from his upstairs window! The Talbottown Shopping Center which was dedicated in 1957 is visible in the distance. The photo is from the Talbot Historical Society’s H. Robins Hollyday Collection.
