Hyattsville, Maryland may be one of the last places in American where you can see such a robust display of chachkas in the window of a commercial establishment. It's one of the reasons I think Hyattsville is so special. I don't even know, really, what kind of business this is. A Dry Cleaner? A Hair Saloon? Who cares? What makes this place so appealing is are the plants (real) and the animals (ceramic and plastic) that live in the window, looking not at each other, but out, at us who pass by. I particularly like the plastic doily that some of the more special, and regal, animals get to stand on. This type of stylish display is quickly fading in our land I'm afraid. Enjoy it while it's still here. Enjoy it while you still can.
