According to Fiorelli, the wall that preceded this shop had varied and important graffiti.

Some of them read:

According to Della Corte, he thought people working or living here were named on the surviving electoral propaganda.

3 men named as Pyramus, Calvus, and T. Genialis,  with the writer being Infantio, and 3 women named as Statia, Petronia and Olympionica.

These three were found on the left of the entrance doorway, between IX.3.18 and IX.3.19:

 

Pyramus,  Olympionica,  Calvus  rog(ant)    [CIL IV 3674]

Statia  et  Petronia  rog(ant)     [CIL IV 3678]

T.  Genialis,  Infantio  ro(gant)     [CIL IV 3680]
