    Patterns & Paper Ephemera Storage

    What is also very important is to have a climate controlled room with low humidity. I do all of the above suggestions and have a dehumidifier running in the summer.

    "In Uniform"

    I've always heard "Ooorah" instead but in writing I've always seen it written as either "Semper Fi" or "S/F". I don't think I've ever heard a Marine ever come out and say "Semper Fidelis."

    Woolworth's

    Do you mean to say that Chock Full O' Nuts is gone? Yes, I have been to that one. I just adore old lady joints!* Well, I do hate when they give me aches and pains, but the other kinds of eatery joints are great.

    Sha Na Na bass urges Maine to ban pretenders

    Think of all the Marilyn Monroe impersonators that don't pay her estate a dime... I know the Elvis people once made some sort of public statement about looking the other way. But since those celebrities are dead, it's obvious they aren't the real thing. The issue with Sha Na Na is...

    Sha Na Na bass urges Maine to ban pretenders

    Apparently it's a nationwide epidemic! ;) "Bauman, who performed with Sha Na Na from 1969 until the mid-'80s, is pitching the bill in his role as head of the Truth in Music Committee of the Pennsylvania-based Vocal Group Hall of Fame. He is taking the proposal to state capitals because...

    web rip offs?

    I'm with you 100 percent. A lot of people look at what they can pay for an item if they go out looking for it themselves, but that doesn't compensate the seller for their time. I think a good analogy is crafts. Crafty people will see something and think "Oh I can make that for half the price"...

    Woolworth's

    The store was "Bark-N-Roll." Planet Dog is still open. There's another store, I think it's called Fetch, I believe that's still open. I haven't been to "Yummy's." It sounds dangerous!

    Woolworth's

    Stride Right?! By chance were you in Englewood? My mom used to take me there for me to buy specialty shoes! I still can see the elderly rail thin MAN in a suit measuring my feet. The diner- was it Baumgart's?! http://www.baumgartscafe.com/ Maybe the Fort Lee diner? Both places have lots of...

    Woolworth's

    I wonder if there are kids that still make model anythings. I actually recall making a model Herbie the Lovebug from a kit I got from a Five and Dime in the 70's! lol "Woolworth retiree." Wow. I wonder how many will be able to say "Walmart retiree." Not many. I am depressed now. :(

    Woolworth's

    Oh Daisy, I know how much you love Portland, but it keeps changing rapidly, and not for the best. I went downtown yesterday and counted four more locally owned shops that closed. One sold antiques, another collectibles mixed with newer items, another sold high end items for dogs, the other made...

    Woolworth's

    I recall going to Woolworth's on 59th Street in NYC after school. Although I could choose from all kinds of eateries, I was always attracted to the lunch counter in there. It felt safe and removed from the rest of the city. In it, only "old people" would be eating or drinking coffee. I can still...
