A classic 50's Acme

This is how the store in the rendering below would have looked when it was built. A classic 50's-early 60's Acme. As these stores continued to be built, the script logo was made smaller and smaller. I remember the Acme in my town had this logo and several of the letters had fallen backwards.

  1. This store closed sometime in the 70's, later becoming Grossman's Lumber. A huge 3 point sign on the corner of Rt. 30 & Colby Ave. remained well in to the 80's. The store was demolished and is now an Aldi.
