Ah, yes. Any of you out there remember when every city and town, no matter how big or small, had a thriving downtown? Today, we have the urban sprawl that began with malls and huge discount stores (i.e. Wal Mart) and has devolved into the outdoor shopping center/strip mall. Everything's a chain, none of the salespeople give two shits about you, and.... well, I'll save that rant for another post. Suffice it to say: Downtown mom and pop shops, may you rest in piece.
I happened to come by a few ads for wonderful downtown stores from the late 60s and early 70s, each featuring miniskirted models. I hope you enjoy them. And remember: "Be Fashionable. Shop Murray's House of Fashion."
