The transition from classic, behind-the-counter, individual customer service at small, specialized grocery stores to self-service in large supermarkets began in West Germany in the mid-1950s. In this photo, customers select from a wide variety of packaged meat products in a Hamburg supermarket. Photo by Gerd Mingram [Germin].
