From Miami Beach, it’s Jean’s Candy Shoppe. Don’t know anything about Jean’s so please feel free to leave a note if you do. Jean sure had an outstanding book of matches. I’d guess this is from the 1940s.
Sorry about the blurry scan, but it’s not easy to scan a matchbook with matches in it. Neat image on the matches!
The building that housed Jean’s still stands — it was bought in the late 90s (and renovated) by MAPS, a well-known Miami Beach production company that specializes in photo shoot productions (and whose mobile truck is a frequent site around the Beach).
