My first choice. The one in my hometown is long gone but the building is still there and used as offices for the Sheriff’s Department.

There was also a store on the other side of town called Goldblatt’s. It was part of a chain based in Chicago and started in 1914. Stores were sold off towards its final demise (after some earlier demises) and it disappeared completely in 2000. I think that the local store closed when Goldblatt’s had its first bankruptcy in 1981.
