Fifth Avenue Record Shop in Park Slope was founded by Anthony Mignonette and has been in business since 1968.

We love its #handpainted #signage and its vast selection of #vinyl. Sadly the #sign, which Anthony told us was installed in 1972 was recently damaged by a windstorm. Many thanks to our friend @foldedsunset who told us that the signage has now been removed. Photo from 2009 and full interview with Anthony appear in our book "Store Front II-A History Preserved". #storefront #disappearingfaceofnewyork
