Guys,
The first place I started getting models here in Statesville, NC
was at the Woolworth's where they had a LOT of models. I remember
all the Monogram models with the Shep Paine 'booklets' in them,
my favorites. Trying to get my parents to buy me a model was
always tough, except when I wanted a model of the USS Saint Paul,
my Dad's ship......he plunked down the money just like THAT!
The first real hobby shop I went into was when I was stationed in
Germany, '84-'86. There was a hobby shop in Gelnhausen that I found
quite by accident, it blew my mind to see so many models in one
spot. I remember walking out of there with a Leopard 1A4, I think.
Good thread, brought back GREAT memories.
