Default Vintage Pictures of Vintage Card Displays

So we all have seen that cool Dime Store pic of the 52 Topps display. Maybe it is from Woolworth's. I found this one today. Maybe you all have seen it. Anyone else have one to share so we can go back in time?

Middle shelf is mostly Topps, left to right : Unknown bagged product likely not theirs, Clor-Aid Gum (Topps Clorets type gum, they got their asses sued and took it off the market), Wings, two different series of 1953 Baseball (3rd series for sure, 2nd next to it?), party boxes of Bazooka, unknown product again (Adams gum?)

He looks like he’s about to finish gluing the “good” cards to his album. The rest will go onto his bicycle spokes. If he only knew...

Default Detroit News Photo

1953 Bowman B & W Stengel just above the barrel of the bat. (Casey's head lopped off by a 52 Topps card.)

I'm sure someone on the board here has the '53 wrapper, if not each year of Topps and Bowman....

Absolutely Love the Woolworth's picture. From 1974 till 1978 when our local Woolworths closed down My Dad and I would stop by in september and the Manager would sell us all the left over boxes he had for 40% off retail. we opened almost all of it to build sets...
