Photograph of Antonio Olivieri in his grocery store, Hamilton, ON
This is a black and white photograph of internee Antonio (Tony) Olivieri pictured in the grocery store he owned on Sherman Avenue North in Hamilton, Ontario. He is shown packing a box at a counter or table with shelves of tobacco products and other store goods behind him.
In an interview with Toni McDermott, Antonio's grandaughter, she describes the store he owned and operated in detail. It had everything, she describes, "cigarettes, cigars, food, candy, pies, cakes..." In this photo, Antonio is wearing a sweater with necktie and eyeglasses.
