an-ti-quat-ed

The other day I was in a mom-and-pop style carpet store looking for a particular type of remnant. I see this wonderfully old cash register and decide to snap a quick pic while I'm waiting. (See how it is juxtaposed with the credit card sign?) The gentleman waiting on me didn't bat an eyelash and then when I paid cash he actually used the darn thing! And here I thought it was just for show. Silly me.
