Manhattan shoppers were shocked and upset when a Baby Gap store apparently showed a lynching tree in its window.
A photo of the display - with what appeared to be two nooses hanging in front of the tree - posted on Facebook caused several people to try to contact Gap, at first with no success.
However one commentator wrote later: 'I just spoke to someone at the store and he said it was a photo of an unfinished display, and that the final display shows two babies on a swing.'
The final display did indeed show two children on a swing. Gap spokesperson Renate Geerlings said: 'This photograph was taken when the store was finishing a visual display for a swing.'
