Shop America, out next month from Taschen, captures the optimism, opulence, and commercialism of midcentury America by showcasing a compendium of storefront designs from 1938 to 1950. The illustrations are "reminders of a time when stores were sacred shrines for the congregation of American shoppers." The images reflect a shopping experience unparalleled by today's mega-malls and eBay bids.
