DescriptionOld Town Indian Trading Post on San Felipe Road in Old Town, Albuquerque, New Mexico.The single-story adobe building has a peaked corrugated metal roof. To the left of the screen door is a sign that says “Navajo Rugs Pottery”. To the right of the door is a sign that says “Curios”. On the left and right parts of the front of the building are paintings of Indians in feather headdresses. A sign with another painted Indian in a feathered headdress juts out from the front wall, and includes the word Jewelry. To the right is a different business, with a painting showing Saguaro cactuses, a rainbow, and the business name, “Perfumes of the Desert”, written on the wall. To the left of the building, across an alleyway, is what appears to be an outhouse. The road in front of the trading post appears to be made of dirt.On View
