This store hurried itself by not keeping up with the times... I live right down the street. The store looked like it hadn't been updated in 50 years and the old man was a pain to deal with. Over priced, not open on weekends and zero web presence or community involvement (which is HUGE in Worcester). It's unfortunate to see, but if he had made ANY smart move in the last 20 years, he would have been fine.

Never been to your store, but just saw your story on the Good Morning show. Sorry you are closing. You are a vital piece of American History. Greetings from Gretna, Nebraska.
