71st Street Pictures

Hello all,

My great-grandfather owned a jewelry store at 71st just east of Crandon. The address was, for a short time 2304, and later 2310. It was in business from 1937 until he moved to Kedzie in the late sixties.

Unfortunately, my family has NO photos of the store even though is was there almost 30 years.

What would you recommend for trying to find a photo of the storefront that might be in a historic collection somewhere? I'm really just starting out. So I'm looking for any guidance you could give.

Thank you.

[b]If the building still exists go to google maps street view and see if it's there. I'll look myself.[/b]
