After 20 years of fun, the store family has decided to retire at the end of December. It’s been a thrilling 20 years full of fond memories, entertaining guests, and most importantly, awesome customers like you. From Free Comic Book Day to Svengoolie visits and Toys 4 Tots, YOU made the shop great every day.
Our last day open will be 12/30/2014- thank you again for supporting us through the years. We've apprciated your business, but more, your friendships.
...
Thank you for a great 20 years!
The Armstrongs & the Entire Store Family
