The Blockbuster closed years ago, but the stripmall never paid to take the sign down, they just hung a banner over it. They're finally removing it, and I'm thinking of calling the property manager to see if I can take it off their hands. It has a big hole in it and I doubt the remnants of Blockbuster corporate wants it back considering its been derelict for over a decade, so the stripmall is probably just gonna throw it away. I figure it's worth a shot. I'd even be willing to pay for it (up to a point)

Anyway, in the 70s, you could go to the mall and get a full-leather bag for about $8 ($45 in today's dollars) that was likely hand-stamped and hand-painted. And maybe even made in America.
