Just wanted to let you know that I got your name off an envelope from July 1939. Your store looks wonderful and very cozy. I live in McDonough,Georgia and at 71 I will probably not get to visit. But what a store!
Thank you for your kind response. As it turns out, I was able to visit the Argosy on Tuesday. In fact, I arrived shortly after opening and stayed most of the morning, making a number of purchases. I notice that you wrote to me a 10:34 AM, meaning that I was in the store when you sent me an email. One of life's many coincidences... Again, many thanks for your courteous response. Best regards, until my next visit!
