Ideal Dinettes, Brooklyn, NYC

We are releasing 11x14 inch signed prints of this #storefront for $99 including shipping to anywhere in the continental U.S. Please DM or email us at jandkphoto@att.net to order.

Ideal Dinettes was founded in 1953 and specialized in kitchen dinette sets, catering to the many large Italian families living in the neighborhood. Sadly it closed in 2008 as the 2nd generation owners decided to retire and the neighborhood began to gentrify with younger,single people moving into the area. Before the shop closed, the owner called us to ask if we wanted to keep the #neon stainless steel #signage as she knew we were very fond of it, but since the #neonsign was so large (and heavy) and we live in a studio apartment, we could not take it and it ended up in a dumpster.
