  Kudos to the local people that kept this place pristine and free from vandalism.

  It says a lot about the quality of the people in this area. Everything is still there! If this store had been literally anywhere else the valuable goods would have been stolen, other items smashed for fun, and the building vandalized or burned decades ago.

  Hi, I am a Taiwanese. I do believe that the boxes with the Chinese characters mean the highest quality of loose tea leaves with the brand name ( larger characters).

  Not even a speck of dust. Truly remarkable how well maintained this has been. Very thankful to all owners, past and present, for preserving this so well. I hope it stays this way for many years to come.

  Maintaining, dusting, and preserving this store is truly a labor of love.

  I absolutely loved this store.  I'm a few months shy of turning 74, and i remember most of these items from childhood.  No such thing as a supermarket then.  Everything was purchased through small, neighborhood stores like this, or similar.  I miss those days.  Totally different world.

  Quite possibly one of the best abandoned videos I've ever seen. This time capsule is a holy grail of explorers. Absolutely stunning!

  a grandma died and her house left intact for decades, without roof leaks the interior was identical to how it was left when opened recently, no flaking paint, canned goods sitting just like they were left... moisture is the biggest enemy of abandoned stuctures, direct sunlight is next and rodents of course, if those 3 minimal then not much will change over decades...

  Don’t know what algorithm brought me here but, this was awesome!! How amazing the condition everything is in. It may not be an official museum but, it is a monumental freeze-frame from the past.

  I wish someone had preserved a 1950-60 Woolworth’s variety store in the States like this. Thanks for the memories.

  I was 8 years old when this closed. No telling how many folks that passed through them doors who are no longer with us.
