Charles H. Javins, Merchant

I don't know Charles H. Javins, but here's his market in 1926.  It was at Washington's old Center Market, and is identified here as a seafood stand, but I think I see chickens as well as fish.

Link: C.H. Javins 1926 at Shorpy Historical Images.

Postscript: I did a search for Charles and found that "John F. Javins and Francis H. Javins, copartners, trading under the name of Charles H. Javins & Son, Washington, D. C." were charged with adulteration of oysters in 1917.
