RAR shop

This is an old shop of RAR (Rīgas autoelektroaparātu rūpnīca) - Riga autoelectromachinery factory on Klusā iela in Riga. Today the company still somehow exists, perhaps cos it belongs to Russians and works mainly for Russia, so it might be the reason why they don't need a local shop anymore.

I like your photos Arnis. While the other Riga photo blogs concentrate on the current, you take us on a journey and step back into the soviet past.

Tell me what are those murals for? Are they social advertising?
