Department stores

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?

I used to like Western Boot and Shoe, and Flag Brothers shoes. Walter Smith was great too. Liberty House
closed in Hawaii a few years ago. Shams Mens Wear on Kings Canyon. The new big stores don't cut it. Thank
you for posting the above stores.

I most fondly remember the old Sun Stereo on Blackstone and Dakota, and Lightning Records on Ventura. I spent endless hours in both places, I remember the John & Yoko LP that ended up being reshipped in a brown bag. They were sans clothes on the cover, and it was one bad album.

Bad meaning bad!
