The end of an era.

Joining Woolworth, W.T. Grant, Lit Brothers, A&P, Horn & Hardart. Soon to be joined by Sears.

I worked at Sears 40 years ago in part to make money to buy ham radio supplies at Radio Shack. My grandson will feel the same about today's stores 40 years from now, if there is still an America.

A&P is still in business. Fewer stores, but they do still exist.

I guess it just wasn't realistic for Radio Shack to stay open.
