The interior of the shop of C.W. Lant Confectioner, Cornwall, Ontario

The interior of the shop of C.W. Lant Confectioner.

At the right, the magazine rack features top-to-bottom, illegible, Britannia, Nash’s, illegible, Silver Screen, and Movie Classic. With the Wonderland theatre just two doors south of Lant’s store, it shows good marketing to carry movie magazines. Land also advertised “fruit, cigars, cigarettes, tobacco, etc.” The small coal stove would keep the store warm in winter. To the left of the stove pipe near the ceiling appears to be a mounted deer head.
