Description
This black and white photograph features a white metal building near a road with a set of picnic tables and trees in front. The wording on the side of the building reads "Steve's Watermelons" in black lettering and a depiction of a watermelon is painted above "Steve's". A man is standing next to the picnic tables and another white building is behind the watermelon building. There appears to be some dark spots of damage on the right side of the photograph.
