Description

A picture of Checkie's Cafe in October 1946. The image depicts the front door of the restaurant, with the name above the door and the street number on the doorframe. On the left window, the street number is printed again along with the words "Checkie's Cafe, Mexican Dishes, Specialty." A sign appears to be hung inside on the window and says something obscured by glare on the window and "on ice" beneath it. A coke advertisement is printed on the door handle. The cafe was located at 4120 Park Avenue in Riverside, California.
