Onyx Soda Water Apparatus
An Onyx Soda Water apparatus built by the Onyx Soda Fountain Company on 34th Street in New York City. I cannot make out the location on the photograph but it looked like quite a soda shop. Photo from The New York Architect, 1908.
How many egg creams would it take to outfit a soda shop like this?
ReplyDeleteZach,
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Rikeni & Thirty-Fourth Street. I've never heard of Rikeni - it sure isn't on the current maps.
It would seem that the business was called Rikeni and it was located on 34th Street. But that's just a guess.
