Re: Piggly Wiggly in Fargo

I'm going to have to find those Piggly Wiggly slides and scan them again. I didn't have a good scanner when I did it the first time.

Re: Albertsons Logos Through The Years

Here's an old Polaroid I picked up in a group of photographs. It may have been taken in Tacoma, Washington...

The Mayfair was originally a Sewell's Grocery Store. They had locations in Reno at 430 N. Virginia and 1331 S. Virginia, and a location in Winnemucca, too.

Re: Closed VONS, closed Albertsons, Las Vegas, NV

I had forgotten that Circuit City was an Albertsons. I lived at Harmon and McLeod when I was eight years old. I remember walking to Woolco which was in the same shopping center. The bakery, Baskin Robbins and a bike shop were also in there. Skaggs/Alpha Beta opened across the street after my family ...

Re: 1960's Washington DC Safeway Picture

Thanks, guys! The picture was taken in 1964/5. It was a pretty small store. I found a shot of the side of the building which was added on to the mansion. I don't know if the store actually went into the house, though. I wonder how long Safeway used that signage? Mid-1950's?

Re: Rite-Aid Sign Replacements for Acquired Chains

Here's a 1988 Payless/Rite Aid location in Henderson... http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2303/2167113497_bc797c23c9.jpg I shot this picture in 2006 It's a real time capsule inside retaining the original Payless interior. I'll try to sneak some shots when I go in. The place is always like a ghost town.
