It's been a good long while since I've seen a Yellow Front. Last one I remember being in was in Tucson on Oracle and Magee back in 1982 or so.

Yellow Front was a great store. I grew up in South Phoenix and the one we had down there was on Central Ave between Broadway and Southern. And yes, that was close to 50 years ago.

I was going through an old tackle box with the youngest to set him up with it and found these. I had them when I was a kid and they were from Yellow Front. Some good memories as a kid staring at all that stuff.

Yellow front,,,,, always seemed to be right next door to a Checker Auto.
Kind of a precursor to the dollar stores.

The mass shootings must have been every day with all those easy to buy firearms.

Oh wait, there were no mass shootings?
