I rarely find memorabilia from Missouri City, but I received this undated photo of the Court Brothers Store in Missouri City. (My best guess at the date is the late '20s or early '30s.) Unfortunately, the original photo isn't very clear, but you can see the store sold general merchandise (hardware), plus cigars, sandwiches, and other items I can't make out. Somebody in the store was a notary public.
The Court family (or someone else) lived above the store. Note the clothes drying on the porch on the 2nd floor.
You can also see the Cangelosi store on the left, which sold groceries, meat, and other items I can't make out.
