Any T206 general stores out there?

While travelling last weekend in the Eastern Townships in Quebec, I came across the St. Laurent family store in Compton . Louis St. Laurent was the prime minister of Canada in the 1950s, and his family operated the store from the late 1890s to the 1960s. It is now operated as a museum by Parks Canada.

I would expect some C46s and T206s were sold from the shelves. The merchandise on the stores are replicas, but it was a very neat experience to visit the store. Any other similar stores out there?

Legendary California ghost town, Bodie, has a Collins Candy tin among the several artifacts on display at the town's general store. Unfortunately the state of preservation is not as nice as the store above. One has to wonder if Zeenuts of Ping Bodie were ever sold there.....
