Title	Shea Building, Louisville, Kentucky, 1927.
Contributors	Caufield & Shook (photographer)
Description	Smoke lingers over the Shea Building on West Broadway in Louisville, Kentucky, which sits at the corner of a partially-bricked street. A trolley car heads south as it approaches the intersection of Sixth Street and Broadway where a four-way stop light is suspended. On the front of the trolley are ads including one for Clown Cigarettes. A man in a white overcoat is stepping out of the Shea building where signs on the first floor advertise Blue Valley Butter and the Standard Furnace and Range Company. On the corner is a sign for W. W. Winter Delicatessen and Coca-Cola under which stands a scale. To the left of the Shea Building is a hardware store and then the Broadway Barber Shop which is decorated with a barber pole. Next to the barber is Pioneer Cleaners & Dyers. Across Sixth Street is a sign for a Diamond gas station. Handwritten on back: "6th St. Car, Built St. Louis Car Co. in 1902. Southbound at 6th & Broadway, In service on 6th & 7th St. Line."
