D'Auria & Sons Pork Store in the Little Italy of the #Bronx, which was in business from 1938-2006. Photo taken using 35mm film in 2004 and pictured in the photo is the 2nd generation owner Mike D'Auria who told us that what makes his sausages special are the TLC (tender loving care). Mike also told us that he was not the "marrying kind" and had no children of his own to take over the family business when he retired, which tempted us to learn the trade from him so that we could keep the business alive. Photo and full interview with Mike appears in our book "Store Front:The Disappearing Face of New York".
