The Purple Rainbow is tucked away up on Fraser Street near East 47th Avenue. The building dates from the late 1920's and was once a corner store. Up until the late 1990's the store was called Harry's Produce when it was then converted into a florist shop. If you visit the store today and look closely you'll notice the very bottom panels closest to the sidewalk are in fact old embossed 7up signs that have been painted over. Too bad as the signs would be worth quite a bit today!
