National Christmas Center - Woolworth Display (older version)

A beautiful tribute to a time of innocence and wonderment as seen through the eyes of a wide eyed child, eagerly awaiting Christmas morning, this display moved me to tears as I slowly walked around looking at the simplicity of some of the toys kids enjoyed and grew up with. The Woolworth section of the National Christmas Center is just one of many different types of amazing displays this magnificent museum has to offer.

    One of the greatest-entrepreneurs in American History, Mr. Woolworth was. All little-Frankie ever wanted was to one-day clerk in a store like the one he knew as a boy. Dreams of owning his own chain of such stores was far-in-the-future but, you know what? Those dreams were achieved, his "five & dime" concept revolutionizing American-mercantilism in the process---and, golly, did we love those miraculous, marvelously-democratic stores he conceptualized & provided us!

    Thank you thank you and thank you again!!!! What a warm walk down memory lane. My eye really widened when I saw the doll house my mom and dad got me back in the early 1960's. There were other things as well and it all warmed my heart ❤ up! Thanks again.

    Love this Woolworth remembrance. I sure have fond memories of shopping there for Christmas with the money I saved in my Christmas account at the bank. Thank you for sharing …..please go a little slower with the camera as it almost goes too fast to really focus on what is being presented. Please know this is not meant as a criticism…..it’s just that i am enjoying it so much that I want to take it all in. Best to you!

    Woolworth, J.J. Newberry, Grants, McCrory’s, etc. were 5 &10 stores. All gone now and sadly missed. Now replaced with “Dollar” stores. Same concept. I don’t get it.
