Long before smart phones and the internet there was the soda fountain. These meticulous counters staffed by friendly and impeccably clean servers were at one time found in almost every diner, pharmacy or anywhere else people were allowed to gather. A few are still around to this day and offer an unparalleled glimpse into the past where people actually interacted face to face. The round rotating seats allowed patrons to turn toward each other for conversation, romance or just to talk about the weather, old fashion style.
The photographer captured a jewel from the past with this image of a classic Art Deco soda fountain and counter from the Royal Pharmacy.
This image was photographed in the French Quarter of New Orleans, one of the most fascinating cities in the world.
