Feedback: Reader wants picture of Jim Riall Store

LETTERS and FEEDBACK

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

I, too, would love to have a picture of the Jim Riall store at Jericho. My mother used to talk about going there before school started each year to buy shoes for school. Thanks.

This note is to be passed along to George Rice, who says he has had a copy, but can't find for the moment. It anyone finds the picture, we hope they will share it. The memory of buying shoes for school at at small county store (actually Walker Bros. was a big country store) may seem odd, but we used to travel from Columbia to Gradyville to Uncle Hob Walker's store, which had a fine line of Poll Parrott and Buster Brown shoes throughout the year, when we had to have them. We got kinfolks price, and we had a big family, so the discount mattered. -Ed
