Great Department Stores and Specialty Shops that are gone

Do you remember the Country Boys Market with its wooden floors? Walter Smiths was the place to go for clothes on the Fulton Mall. Penny Candy had great blacklight posters and don't forget Whitie's Pet Store on Blackstone. What vintage retail do you remember growing up in Fresno?

Does anyone remember a small pharmacy that was in/around Cambridge Count? I was young, so remember little, but recall it being "dark" in general, save for a fish tank that glowed and possibly the counter area. My mom says it was one of those mom and pop places and closed long ago, but can't remember the name or anything else about it, except one thing: she swears it was upstairs, while I thought downstairs. My doctor Saigal used to work around the area
