DescriptionThis image depicts Comer's Coffee Shop which is located 24 miles East of Albuquerque, New Mexico on U.S. Highway 66. The coffee shop consists of six gas pumps covered by a metal awning and main building. A pickup truck can be seen parked behind the dumpster near the gas pumps. A tall neon sign rests on top of the awning and states "Philips 66" on it. The main structure has a large sign reading "Comer's Coffee Shop". Below this sign, two large windows can be seen on either side of the glass front door. Coffee shop patrons sitting at a dining bar and several empty tables and chairs can be seen through the windows. A black dog can be seen looking downwards at the ground just outside one of these large windows. Around the left side of the building, on the left side of the frame, a car is visible parked along this wall.On View
