DESCRIPTION   Interior view of an unidentified beauty shop located in Corpus Christi, Texas. A customer, with a tower draped around her neck, sits at a small table having a manicure done. Another woman, wearing an identical white uniform as the manicurist, stands behind her. The shop is furnished with a large hairdryer at left, a chair with footrest at right, and a small shelf holding beauty supplies, and it used a curtain on a wire and turnbuckle for a partition. The license on the wall is for Irene Rae Daley from the National School of Cosmeticians. Note the shampoo ad on the wall which reads "Full Speed Ahead--Now Is the Time To Fly."
