Here’s another image from my stash of art school negatives, but this time we skip across the Delaware River to the town of Westville, New Jersey. This is a shot of a greasy spoon called the Murphy House. It was closed and looking for a buyer at the time which it never did find. Eventually it was demolished which is a shame. It looks like a set from an old movie. Maybe Janet Leigh stopped there on the way to the Bates Motel.

Thanks so much for commenting, Carole! I was hoping somebody would come along who knew about these places I shot!
