Thriftmart Parking Lot in 1959
This photo was taken in West Covina, California in 1959 and the cars in this lot will give any vintage car fan envy! One of the prices advertised in the window is two avocados for 25 cents, which would be a total steal today. But, adjusting that price for inflation would mean that two avocados were worth about $2.38 in today’s terms, which isn’t the bargain it may seem to be.
