I do remember it being there before the Candy Palace expansion. I kind of remember an extension of the Penny Arcade being behind that wall. In fact, if you enter the Candy Palace through the side doorway that's next to the Coke Corner Pianist/Piano, there is still a sign over the door with "Penny Arcade" spelled out in light bulbs.TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-11845052915916481892010-09-16T21:33:38.623-07:002010-09-16T21:33:38.623-07:00How is it that shops people make huge hits of can ...How is it that shops people make huge hits of can fail anyway and/or be replaced with something else second or third rate? It's not a dead strip mall we're talking about, there can't be a more ideal situation.<br /><br />Nancy, that's a good idea. Looks like they wouldn't be too hard to make, just find some white cotton-ish filler and felt red ribbons & bows. :)Chiana_Chathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18329208224763179478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-23954859480748178862010-09-16T21:18:37.758-07:002010-09-16T21:18:37.758-07:00Great post as always...

Lafitte's Silver, the One Of A Kind, Le Gourmet, all have bit the dust and been replaced with garbage stores.

Dad and I practically had to drag her out each trip.<br /><br />The dark background here almost looks like the One Of A Kind Shop (now gone) in NOS. That was a must-stop for Mom too, right after exiting Pirates. This photo can't be that, since I see two glasses alike on the left shelf.<br /><br />There is/was may still be, Cristal D'Arques in NOS, separate store from One Of A Kind. I bought a mickey mouse glass mug there in 1976, which i still have on my desk.<br /><br />Beautiful pictures and memories. Thanks Major.<br /><br />JGJGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456196709930408585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-89598101284130787412010-09-16T07:51:29.915-07:002010-09-16T07:51:29.915-07:00When did Arribas have a store in Disneyland?

I thought it might be the Crystal Shop that's been there forever, however I didn't know that it had different owners/sponsors over time. What do I know?
