    Tacoma, Wash. Grand Opening Ads

    I've posted some scans of supermarket grand opening advertisements on my Yahoo Photos site. Go to the link below and click on the "Grand Opening" folder.

    If you look at the ad for the Safeway on 19th Street, you'll see that the store featured a "footware" department. Was this a limited experiment or were they integrating this into all their new stores in the mid-'70s? Obviously the idea didn't stick. I also love how they called the wall graphics "abstract pictorials" -- makes them sound worthy of an art museum.
