Image of Sentner, MacLeod and Co. wholesale and retail store located on Queen Street, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. The image shows the façade of the store, a large, three storey, brick building topped with a sign which reads "My Store". The image is taken from across the street in winter and is dated ca. 1890-1906.

My Store is a wholesale and retail store (Sentner, MacLeod and Co.) that was around in the in the late 1800s and early 1900s on P E I. It was pretty big, around three stories, and it had a huge "My Store" sign. It was a big store and it had lots of windows. Many people would have used it for a post office, meeting place and store. It was not by itself; there were other stores right by it, so it would have had lots of competition. The stores right beside it might have been clothing stores, too. This store would have sold almost everything that the other stores would have had. The store was built of wood with some stone.
