The upstairs was the family quarters while the lower level was the retail shop. This millinery shop, built about 1880 in Detroit, Michigan, was one of a new wave of late 19th-century neighborhood, specialized retail shops that catered to middle-class working families, providing inexpensive, mass-produced goods to their customers. Series: Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village. Item # 5991 was introduced in June 1999 and retired in December, 2003.
