Description: You are purchasing a: Sheila's Wood Figurine Decor THOMPSONS MERCANTILE Country store This building is dedicated to the institution that had great influence on the lives of rural Americans, as a forerunner of the stores that support Shelia's Inc. From 1865 to 1930 the country store was in its heyday. The country store provided all the essential needs for everyday living. Most store fronts were covered in advertisements. Traveling salesmen carried quantities of tack on signs of their product. These men vied for vacant or prominent spots. There are tales of battles between salesmen when one would remove a competitor's sign only to replace it with their own. By the late 20's one out of five families owned an automobile and the trip to town became more convenient. Chain food stores and five and dime stores numbered in the thousands, offering lower prices and more brand name products. Today the country store has closed leaving only memories and empty buildings.
