Did the one in Hartford have the bid ceiling fans?

I don't remember. In fact, there were only two things that I was interested in at the store. One was the candy counter (to this day, seeing my kids eat "malt balls" makes me think of Woolworths) the other was the little machine that, for 25 cents,you spun a dial that had the alphabet on it, and you could emboss whatever you wanted on a star shaped medallion.
The rest of the store was just clothes and stuff, and I had no interest in that junk.

Woolworths?!! When I was in, maybe, the third grade, or something, I stole a package of balloons from Woolworths. A sales lady grabbed me, hustled me back into a stock room, and called the FBI, or something.

Scared me to death! I never went back, and I can remember her face to this day.
