Well, you're not alone - guess what I learned to type on? In fact, when I was a junior in high school, the school bought a single electric typewriter (the first; all others were manual) and I got to use it. Just love stores like this - terrific capture, Denny! #9437017

We had a store like that out here in the middle of no where years ago. It was called Johnson City, it may still be on some old MO maps. One store that burned in Oct '69. I remember going there smelling feed, and many other smells of a country store. Thanks for the memories Denny #9437487
