I'm keen to go for accuracy, and I'd love to get that detail right for the piece I'm writing.
Or for that matter, if anyone remembers a Rexall location near them, circa early 1950s, feel free to chime in.
Thanks!

Brian - Your request jogged my memory of an old photo buried somewhere in my files showing a crowd lined up to buy Topps high numbers in 1952. Oh well, the store was right, but the mob que'ed up for some other purpose...sorry.
