I am not sure where you are located....... If you look on the umbrella in the picture - It appears to say:
BUY CO-OP'S
GROCERIES
ROCHDALE CO.
( at least that is what it looks like to me )
this might help or not ??

Now I suppose one that know history more might be able to tell from the wagon wheels, or clothing, or something else if this. Looks North American to me. The sign on the store in the background I can not make out. looks like something like as I can not make out the first number ( H, F or M ) then can not see a couple other letter.....but pretty sure the letters after that are _ _ _ losing Co-op ...........or something like ?? _ _ _ lusing ( name of a town ?? 0:
The umbrella says, Dry Goods and Groceries Rockdale Co.
Or Rochdale Co.
Nice photo! Believe it says UNION HOTEL on the centre building and a last name
--LUSING, Prop (as in propietor) on the Meat Market building. Agree the parasol says Dry Goods & Groceries and Rochdale Co. below (a Rochdale Company, not Colorado) If one had the original, I'm sure the town's name is also on the parasol below "Rochdale Co." A lot of Rochdale Companies seemed to be listed in South Dakota, maybe a clue?
i.e. there looks to be some text below "Rochdale Co."
