Roebuck Shopping City


These are pictures taken in March 1967 during a traveling display of dinosaurs from the '64 Worlds Fair.  It was sponsored, quite appropriately, by Sinclair.  (now there's another "do you remember?" name for your mind)

All furnished by Tim Hollis -- the pictures, not the dinosaurs!  ;-)


See the JCPenney store in the background of the middle picture?  There also seems to be a Woolworth's there, too.


How many of these stores do you remember?
