These are parts of four account books used in the general store on Peachtree Road in Doraville, Georgia, that was operated by Dr. Flowers. Each volume is arranged by name of account, recording date, items purchased, cost, and payment. Merchandise purchased included food, tools, fabric, and other staples. These volumes also indicate those accounts that are for African American customers. Some of the pages are water-stained and very fragile.
