Bill's Country Store......

Bill has a room in our house that he calls his country store. He says I have taken over because that is where I have my computer desk. It is in the lower level of our house. He doesn't work at collecting things any more because he can't. Above is a set of scales with the weights. I remember weighing candy on scales like this at FW Woolworth's 5 & 10 cent store.
Rawleighs Liniment. My Dad sold Rawleigh products in his later years. This is some that is still on Bill's shelf.


This clock belonged to Bill's Dad. It is an eight day clock. Bill says he can remember it when he was but a lad.

Old bottles......



Old postcards from Bristol TN and Virginia.




Country Store cont'......
