We have never had drugstores like that - no cafe areas in ours. I enjoyed the funnies. Our late cat, Bonnie was totally unmoved by catnip but the new kitten Silver goes crazy for it. Have a good month - you'll be missed - and take care.

That wall unit would also be beautiful in a home with books or knick-knacks on the shelves. It's a shame how many probably just got chopped up and thrown in the dumpster when old buildings remodeled.

The De Young Museum in San Francisco once had several, and then when they remodeled, the rooms were gone. I was so sorry to see that lack. This drugstore replica is great.

Go to a pharmacy these days. They put into the computer what you need and fluuuup the stuff comes on a slide right to them.<br />No need to know where to find what. We get dumber and dumber with this technology.<br /><br />Meth... I´ll never get drugs in general.
