I have a second photo that is wide but small; probably an amateur photographer. It had been folded in half. It is a large building in the middle of flat lands with a horse drawn cart in front. The building may have been converted from a barn to a store. There are two signs visible. We have put them under a microscope and this is what we can best determine.
Sign 1

in swr vs ( name of the city , but in today Poland not exists city with name
Policja Panstwowa ( State Policy ) existed from 1919 to 1939.

There are other lines, but they are not legible.
We are hoping the photo can provide some clues regarding where the Zucker family lived in the 20th Century. They gave their country of origin as Austria-Galicia. They may have been in Krakow, and/or Majdan Gorny as well. They were in the "spirits" business; they might have been brewers as well as sellers.
Any help would be appreciated.
